I think that checking binaries into CVS would be a really bad idea.
It will cause more problems than its worth since there are many
platforms, like G3, G4, G4, Intel Mac. There is already a lot of
support built into the Pd-extended build system to do CPU-specific
compiles. If this code is done, then automatically building it
should not be hard.
