Actually, in that context, we were talking about sending MIDI data to an
emulated FM chip. (i.e., data that was meant for a midi synth on the
MPU-401 port). This is a rather unorthodox application of an FM
synthesis chip, which is why Stas was questioning it. :)

Playing DOS games with the FM synthesis should be no problem and is the
point of the emulation in the first place, just needs to get enough time
from dosemu and a concurrent process seems the best way to do that at
this moment.

Argh! I need to work on this...
