The reason for providing patches/diffs was discussed a lot on
pd~convention: It makes it much easier to get bugfixes etc. into the
most used version of Pd, that is MSP Pd - both for Miller and for
users who for whatever reason don't want to or can switch to
devel_039, DesireData, PureEvil or so. 

I understand that for the big changes in the various branches, like
threading or the GUI reworking you are doing, patches are not
possible. But your changes for uninitialized values sound like a
simple bugfix, where a patch would be possible and a nice thing to do.

Ciao
