[PD] [pool] binary for Mac Intel?

[Phil Stone]

It's not as obvious as you might think from the archive.  I searched 
quite a while before I posted my question.  One would have to know to 
search on "flext + pd-extended" to find the threads you're indicating.  
Someone looking to use Memento (which requires [pool]), might not know 
this whole history about incompatible build systems for flext-based 
objects, and its implications for using [pool].

I'm in no way complaining about PD-extended and all the work that has 
gone into it, neither am I dissing the wonderful [pool] (or other flext 
objects) -- I realize there's no simple solution here, either.  It's 
just another obstacle to building objects that non-PD/SVN experts can 
use, however.  For instance, I'd like to upgrade my [polywavesynth]'s 
state-saving from sssad to Memento (since I'm already OSC-enabled) -- 
but this will complicate distribution greatly.

Thanks again for the pointer to the binaries, Thomas.  Getting some of 
the "everybody already knows this" knowledge about flext-based objects 
into PDPedia would be very helpful.
