Flext is worthy even for small externals; Saturday morning, I had to
produce a Windows version of my ascii externals (not something I like to
do, but some people I want to help are still being enslaved by M$). I was
able to recompile flext and my externals in one hour, and I guess it would
be the same to create a Max version.

The only problem is that flext is being linked statically to the compiled
externals, which inflates the size of externals by ~ 80k; maybe there's a
way to link flext dynamically...
