I tried ardour 2.0.2 again with "28:BCF2000"'s "0:BCF2000 MIDI 1"
output connected to "129:ardour"'s "1:mcu" input and this time I
get one line of input traced:

mcu input: Channel 3 Pitch Bend 6147

At that point things seem to hang. If I try to quit ardour I
get the dialog about saving first or just quitting. But, after
selecting to just quit ardour doesn't quit, and I have to ctrl-c.
Again, communication seems to be hung somewhere, but where?

Any more thoughts folks?

Thanks...
