Yes, 0.9.0rc7 is dated 2003-01-28
PlanetCCRMA's ALSA drivers came from a CVS snapshot taken at 2003-01-21
The bug was introduced at 2003-01-10

So, you should use current CVS driver, or wait for a PlanetCCRMA update, or  
use Midiman's firmware. For other USB MIDI fully compliant devices, like 
Evolution's keyboards, a fixed driver is needed.
