It appears to be enough. Thanks!
Here are the modules for the latest SHR-U kernel:
ftp://shulyaka.org.ru/pub/kernel-module-snd-seq-device_2.6.29-oe11+gitr1+a15608f241a40b41fed5bffe511355c2067c4e88-r8.4_om-gta02.ipk

It would be good to see them in shr repositories.

Well, I've figured that out. My build system didn't have glibc-static
package for -static builds. Added to the Wiki.

That's a mistake, I just pushed 'reply' button. I meant to reply to the list/

Actually, already installed timidity :)
You can get my package here
ftp://shulyaka.org.ru/pub/timidity_2.13.2-r0.4_armv4t.ipk , though I
don't remember if it works out-of-the box without manual configuration
or installing of a soundfont.
I can use it as a stand-alone midi player, but if I try to start it as
ALSA server I get the same error:

r...@neo ~ $ timidity -iA
TiMidity starting in ALSA server mode
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No
such file or directory
error in snd_seq_open

That's where I failed: I can't compile the kernel myself.
I did everything as advised in
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Building%20SHR , but `make
kernel` fails with '/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc'. I think it's a
dependency problem and I need to compile something first, but I just
can't guess what. `bitbake glibc` doesn't do the trick and also fails
with "find_exidx.c:(.text+0x901b8): undefined reference to
`fstatat64'".

Please describe your problem in details.
