Bob and Frank,

Didn't the JACK ringbuffer code cause you problems when pushing "part
of a float" into it.  I.e., there was room for 3 bytes, but not all
four.  If this is true, how did you fix it?  Specialize for only
floats?  "Yet another ringbuffer implementation" that doesn't have
the problem?  I can't see an occasion when we'd need anything other
than floats.
