Found the bug in the install target of the Makefile, should be fixed  
in the next release.

"iem_cot~" seems to be an alias for "iem_cot4~".  In general, aliases  
are not currently supported in Pd-extended.

installer in the next version.

If you can narrow this down, please post a bug report, hopefully with  
a example patch, to the bug tracker:

I think it's from Gem.

PDP has not been ported to Windows, perhaps you would like to do it? =D

If you have patch that illustrates this, that would be very helpful.   
Please file a bug report if you make such a patch and attach it.
