my original implementation for alsa-MIDI (which is still used) 
autoconnects if only one midi-port is opened it will autoconnect to all 
available midi-ports.
this is meant for easy setup (after talking to nando at some lac a while 
ago), but due to midi-thru is making more troubles than it solves.
for me it is fine to remove the autoconnect altogether (and if needed i 
can provide a patch to fix this)
