That's very strange!  It's not what I see at all.  If I send a true Note-Off
(status byte 128) to midiin, that's what it reports.  (And if I send Note-On
with velocity 0, that's what it reports.)  I'm using Haiku, rather than Linux,
but Csound is Csound...  (I can set up a configuration where I can see
the exact events I am sending to Csound.  To get true Note-Offs, I do
have to add in a converter, as it seems both my K/Bs use the "note-on-0"
convention.)

I'll go over to Linux, just to make sure...
