Thank you for reporting this.

I believe the problem is a in /mit/audio/arch/sgi_62/bin/midia.  The line
MIDIAPATH=/mit/audio/arch/@sys/bin/midia.real

Should use either $ATHENA_SYS or perhaps be rewritten as

MIDIAPATH=`athdir /mit/audio/ bin`/midia.real

I am copying this to the locker maintainers.  Hopefully they can correct the 
problem.

Thank you for using Athena.
