That's already handled by the Pd-extended build system. Once the
build is done, it automatically finds all the needed dylibs and
includes them from Fink.

Like I said before, checking in binaries is a really bad idea. If
the code is "done", it should be simple to automate the building.
This will lead to less work in the long run.
