It's probably the state of affairs, but try at least making Pd setuid
and running it "-rt".  To make it setuid, I think you type,
sudo chown root [...]/pd
sudo chmod 4775 [...]/pd
although you might have to install a "root" user for this to work.  As soon
as I can get to an OSX machine myself I'll look at this...

cheers
