Is there anybody willing to extend Allegro's MIDI functionality, to
make it able to specify the loop point of a song rather then repeat
from the begining? Such as:

play_midi_file(MIDI *song, int loop_point);

It would be useful if your songs had an intro piece before the looping
chunk, like most RPG games do. Shawn says this would be kind of hard,
but I don't see why. Anyway, volunteers would be appreciated.
