   Correct.

   40 minutes?  That's a pretty slow machine you are building on.  I'm 
not sure why, but I have experienced compilers crashing on slow 
machines.  I guess this is typical.

   I wouldn't trust it, though.  If the compiler is crashing, who knows 
what it is generating.

   You might get a more reliable build by getting rid of the 
"--enable-debug" on the config step.  It should have less work to do. 
However, you won't get any debug output.  But then that isn't usually 
worth anything anyway.

   Yes.  That is the old behavior from 11.11.42.  It's not very 
appropriate for multiple keyboards, but it is easier to implement than 
the alternatives.  One day I might have a look at making rg act like 
other sequencers in this regard.

   Great.  That's what I was shooting for.  This is the old 11.11.42 
behavior.

   Sounds like the usual MIDI recording problems related to high CPU 
usage by rg.  I really wouldn't trust rg for MIDI recording at all. 
Particularly on low-spec hardware.  It seems to work ok on my Core i3, 
but still uses way too much CPU.  I'm working on this now, but it's 
going to take many months.
