I am testing the MIDI sample code provided in various published documentation,

CoreMIDI: timeout waiting for MIDIServer to start

The OSStatus code is -10839. I get this when calling each function, including
MIDIRestart, MIDISend.

Run /Applications/Utilities/Console.app, and in the preferences, turn on "Enable crash reporting" and "Automatically display crash logs". Then start your app. It will try to start the MIDIServer process, and fail (I assume because the MIDIServer is crashing). You should see a window pop up with details of how the MIDIServer process crashed.

Most likely, there is some kind of problem with a MIDI driver, which is causing the crash. Try moving aside any drivers in /Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers/ and ~/Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers and try again.

I am also using a utility called MIDIMonitor, which returned a similar error,
advising me to log out or restart.

Have you logged out or restarted? Also, what version of OS X are you using?

Am I to assume that potentially errant MIDI packets will corrupt CoreMIDI and
there is no graceful recovery?

No. You're not even getting far enough to send MIDI--there is something else wrong with your system.
