Summary: cyclone's [gate] changes type on drag and on save

Initial Comment:
if i drag a [gate] object around the gui window, or
save a patch containing a [gate], the [gate] object is
saved as a different type depending on what the last
message to its left inlet was. (0==text, 1==object,
2==msg, 3==numberbox, ...)

i'm running pd-0.39.2-extended-2006-11-08-windowsxp

attached is a patch that demonstrates the bug. bang,
then drag aroud the gate object, or just save and
reload the patch.

Strange bug indeed, I confirmed it on Windows XP with
Pd-0.39.2-extended-2006-11-16.  And it does not exist on Mac OS X with the
same build.

cyclone seems to assume that -mms-bitfields was not set when building Pd,
and that is likely related to the problem.  Everything else in Pd is built
using -mmsbitfields.
