You're the first to try MIDI on Linux as far as I know. It doesn't work at
all on Windows. This should be getting some attention soon.

There is no install target as yet.

I haven't checked MIDI output yet, will report back on that asap.

Okay, thanks for the clarification.

Btw, Michael: I'm building the boost lib(s) now. After they're 
installed, I think I have all the components to build CsoundVST. Are 
there any special build instructions ? SCons reports that it will be 
built by default; if that's true, perhaps the build should report when 
it doesn't actually build it ?

Best,

FWIW, istvan's midi code from csound 4.23.4.2 works pretty nicely, at 
least under linux, and might be worth looking at if you can get ahold of 
it (i only have binaries), unless you want to go with the portmidi solution.
