Tim's reply below. I guess it means that change could probably be reverted.

What I don't understand is how this code, in SC_Reply.cpp, could ever
be anything other than an infinite loop:

Copying Tim, as he seems to be the last person to touch that code.

can probably just be removed ... it would be best to rewrite most of the
io code with boost.asio, including networking, timers, serial, midi, hid
to get rid of all the nasty race conditions, but well ... people will
just complain that they don't understand the code, the full blast of
'just in case' arguments and the like ...

whatever, sc is not dead, it just smells funny ...

tim, who will soon get into qt5-land but without sc :/
