[PD] Latest pd-extended 0.43 autobuild on WinXp

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Glad that worked still.  I forgot that I started implementing the  
'startup' folder as well.  The idea there is that its a place for  
putting things like loaders and GUI plugins so that they automatically  
get loaded by Pd at startup without needing to be in a prefs file.

This 'startup' folder should have the libdir loader in it, but I guess  
its not working on Windows.  I think it'd be good to also include the  
pdlua loader in it so people can use lua objects just like .pd  
or .pd_linux objects with Pd-extended.
