Ok, I tried exmidi in BeOS, and modified it so it uses
while(!key[KEY_ESC]) rest(1); instead of readkey.  And that was enough
here to make it not use up all CPU. So probably we can do without that
constant in BeOS. If we can get someone to test the same in OSX, and it
also works there, then the constant actually isn't needed at all.
