Of course. It's attached.

This might be useful: I've just looked at the session file, and it only
had one <Protocol name="Generic MIDI".../> section. I played with it for
a while, and I discovered that when I open the session (using
gtk2_ardour/ardev ~/test) the Options/Control Surfaces/Generic MIDI and
Options/Control Surfaces/Generic MIDI/Feedback are not ticked. If I tick
them, and *then* bind a midi control, and then shutdown (choosing Save
and Quit) the second <Protocol name="Generic MIDI".../> shows up,
containing the new bindings.

I'm happy to do debugging here - just tell me which source files to
start with.
