works I could trust the outcome from jack_is_realtime(client) and
jack_client_real_time_priority(client). If not, I assume that jack
didn't run with realtime privileges and init my threads into SCHED_OTHER.
I guess this approach is sensible under the assumption that jack failing
to acquire rt scheduling implies your test thread failing to acquire rt
scheduling.
I would still file a bug with jack IMHO
