IOW, I created that problem by having UMusE3 include the midi clock in the 
export to a .mid?  And it really is a Rosegarden bug then because it can't 
handle the extra data's processing or interprets it incorrectly?

Interesting because other than playing the file at about 1/100th normal 
speed, it has no other objections.

I'll not enable that next time I export as .mid from UMusE3.

Thanks Aaron.
