I found another error in DMCS.  When reading SMUS files, it ignores the
iRegister field in an INS1 chunk, instead assuming that the instruments
are all contiguously numbered starting from 0.  Thus, if the score was
created in a program such as SONIX and lots of instruments loading and
deleting was done, all the wrong instruments will be played.
