I am unaware of that assumption, care to elaborate?
The opening off .pat files from the open dialog is unrelated to
cyclone. The opening of .pat files is in Miller's core, cyclone is
written by Krzysztof Czaja as a separate project.
I think I saw this bug before, but I haven't looked into it. I think
it works on Windows. Please file a bug report. Include which
platform you are using to test. I think this works on Windows but
not Mac OS X, for example. Also, testing Miller's releases vs. Pd-
extended releases is also useful.
