I don't see any changes from my local version. last time I checked midiout functionality with alsa_midi, note and controllers worked ok, but system exclusive were not transmitted. in fact I discovered that sys_alsa_putmidibyte never gets called (!). in addition I am not sure if a message can be sent to alsa byte-per-byte instead of passing the entire buffer, i should look at the docs...
Somone should really try to figure out how raw midi streams can be sent via the ALSA sequencer interface, maybe there's a way.
hmm, i had another quick(!) look at the code and federico's observation that sys_alsa_putmidibyte() never get's called seems to be the more tragic issue than the wrong headed implementation of "raw" midi in the alsa-sequencer. i have committed a fix for this to the patch-tracker at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=478070&aid=1356455...
the actual implementation of raw midi-out is still based on the sysex-hack, but is now seems at least to work correctly. (but i have no possibility to test whether it works exactly like oss-[midiout])
