Ah, thanks. I think I was confused by the fact that the module does not 
exist in Ubuntu or Debian.
Is this module of any use for what I'm trying to do? Why doesn't it get 
built by "./configure --with-cards=serialmidi && make"?

I guess I could do that. Basically, ttymidi[1] seems to be halfway 
there, I'd just need to modify it to work bidirectionally and follow the 
actual MIDI spec...


Cheers,
