I wouldn't mention if it was a real Christmas present :o) but it throws some
"r13 ... couldn't create" errors and hooks my CPU (2,2GHz Opteron) heavily
without clicking "start". When clicking "start" nothing happens, perhaps
because of the subpatches that didn't create. (Pd-ex autobuild of
2010-11-23)
Repair it, Daddy! :o)
