thanks for submitting a patch.

in case you are interested, i have a number of patches in the puredata
patch-tracker which have not been answered by miller.

and then something changed: you upgraded the build host to 10.5 and it
stopped working.
i'm not saying that you are to blame, and indeed the autogen.sh file
_is_ buggy; i'm only suggesting how you could generate a build without
having to switch to git (which it seems you don't want to do, as it
doesn't integrate nicely into the current svn setup)

i cannot remember anything about the whys and hows, so i cannot help here.
however, your statement makes me a bit confused, as i thought that the
pd-extended autobuild process is _not_ about testing things, but rather
about getting consistent pd-extended builds.

btw, my osx binaries will not be build against gmerlin,... and the like,
only OSX internals (QuickTime or whatever); FTGL will be statically linked.
