It doesn't appear to be the case. PAM is user-level, and this checking 
is kernel-level. I am not sure how this can be even done.

In any case, I submitted the pull request for using the process realtime 
priority when available: https://github.com/jackaudio/jack1/pull/60

And my other statement about using sched_get_priority_max/min was wrong, 
I misread the code, sorry.


However, it still isn't clear where does the value 10 come from.
