There already is one. I have it, somewhere, probably on a disk on a machine that I
don't have powered on at the moment.
I don't remember the name of it, sorry. It was a very simple one-file daemon in C
which compiled and ran on Linux. I was using it to do MIDI communication to an Arduino
some years ago.

Is this module of any use for what I'm trying to do?
It is supposed to do exactly what you want.
snd-serialmidi
That module is part of the alsa-driver package. Why doesn't it get built by "./configure
--with-cards=serialmidi && make"?
in drivers/Kconfig:
| config SND_SERIALMIDI
| tristate "Generic driver for serial MIDI adapters"
| depends on BROKEN
You could try to remove this dependency, but I'd guess this is there for
a reason and that this driver will not work.
In
theory, it would be possible to write a userspace daemon that
connects any serial port to the ALSA sequencer.
I guess I could do that.
