what do you mean by "64-bit Pd"?
it _could_ mean 2 thing (for me):
- - any (newish) Pd compiled on 64bit platform
- - a Pd that uses 64bit (double-precision) floats for it's internal
t_sample/t_float type, regardless of the architecture it runs on

#1 is simply wrong, as all "proper" Pd's (that is, _not_ Pd-anywhere)
use 32bit (single precision) float for numbers. so on my amd64 system, i
still have the same issue

#2 would be the solution, but even though i started double-ifying Pd
some time ago, i haven't done anything in the last 2 years or so, which
made the project stall. so Pd is not double-precision ready yet (i think
it is still only the sound-generators like [phasor~] and [osc~] that are
missing)
