There are probably also incompatibilities in the patches.  There  
definitely are size incompatibilities between the new font Pd- 
extended and other pd versions.  There are incompatibilities between  
different versions of Pd (0.38, 0.39, 0.40), and each of those  
versions different platforms (Windows, GNU/Linux and Mac OS X).  This  
version is the same size to the pixel on each platform.  There is, of  
course, no way that the new sizes could be compatible with all of  
variations.  But I hope you'll agree that this is a better situation.
