Hey,
It seems that portmidi is now being used on Mac OS X and Windows, but not on GNU/Linux. Anyone know anything about this? I was just wondering since I wrote the autotools build system. It seems like it would be easy enough to use portmidi on GNU/Linux, but I don't use MIDI really at all.

I'm scared to touch anything MIDI (since I don't use it either). Word has it that the "alsa" MIDI implementation in linux is buggy. On the other hand, the old-fashioned one (incorrectly called "OSS" in the Pd GUI) can do things that none of the others can, so should probably be preserved.
