	I've been writing a MIDI driver for the PC/AT running Microport.
This requires a ceratin amount of real-time responsiveness (although the
MPU-401 handles the most nitty-gritty of the real-timeness).  I've found
that the interrupt level is fairly responsive; it's trying to get the user
process running that can take an indefinite amount of time.  Depending
on your application, you might be able to off-load the responsiveness into
the first-level interrupt handler.
