...very good idea:  "kill two bird's with one stone"-kind of  
strategy :-)  It's also good that it'll work with the application  
bundle...perhaps we should have the default on osx be "--with-pd=/ 
Applications/Pd.app/Contents/Resources", or whatever?  This does  
bring up the issue that I think the application bundle should be  
called "Pd.app" or "Pd_devel.app", and have the version in the plist  
and/or have pd announce it's version on startup, like the externals  
do...
