thanks. (though i think it compiled fine the last days, after i disabled
 the default quicktime/lqt check when the QuickTime-framework was found)

i think we disagree here.
./configure --with-pd=/path/to/pd should be able to build a running
version of Gem (here we agree (and this did not work!)), but there is no
need to ignore available libraries on the building machine for the sake
of packaging (for machines that lack this dylibs).
this is what we have the configure-flags for...
