[PD-dev] problem making Pd.app with TclTk-8.4.9

[B. Bogart]

yeah the same thing happend to me with the pixelTANGO.app, I fixed it by
  recompiling PD with the 8,4,9 headers/frameworks.

I think the sticky bit is that I have headers MANUALLY copied into
/usr/local/lib for PD's configure to find them. (otherwise it will
always fail trying to find the tk stuff). I think the reason why I got
it to work was that I was recompiling PD with the old 8.4.1 headers
initially, and then changed them for the new ones and then it worked. I
think this is the case anyhow...

You can always download my pixelTANGO.app and use that as the basis for
the new installer/future releases of PD with 8.4.9 included.

www.ekran.org/ben/research/PixelTANGO-v0.3.3G4.tgz

It works on all machines, and I've hacked the tk file to turn on
antialiasing on all lines.

In case my memory of how I *really* got it to work differs from the
above maybe you can figure out what I did by looking at the result.

No reason why you guys should not be able to get it to work also.
