This came up a looooong time ago when I looked into making
LADSPA a target for sfront. IIRC, you are correct:
John L. said that some global variables would prevent multiple
instances of the same plugin being loaded at once.
Then JACK came along, and I decided to drop that idea and pursue
getting sfront to compile JACK clients. It works, mostly...
and one day I'll clean it up enough to submit to John L. to
distribute with sfront... really, I will... honest...
