Summary: declare not working on osx

Initial Comment:
I am not sure if declare is working the way it is supposed to on OSX
the object I am trying to create is [OSCroute].
I can create [oscx/OSCroute], but what I want to accomplish is to avoid the oscx prefix, so I tried
[declare -stdpath extra/oscx]
[declare -stdpath oscx]
[declare -path extra/oscx]
[declare -path oscx]
[declare -stdlib extra/oscx]
[declare -stdlib oscx]
[declare -lib extra/oscx]
[declare -lib oscx]
I even tried [declare -stdpath extra/oscx] in combination with import oscx. and I get a console printout saying [import] loaded library: oscx,
but OSCroute
... couldn't create 
don't know how to track down the error, or if I am maybe doing something wrong.
pd-extended-0.40.3-20080222.

while [declare -stdlib] seems to work, [declare -stdpath] doesn't work on
windows as well. i created a folder 'foo' into the extra directory and put
a file 'bar.pd' in there.

my test setup:
--------------

pd installation path:
D:\programme\pd-0.41\

pd executable:
D:\programme\pd-0.41\bin\pd.exe

test-abstraction:
D:\programme\pd-0.41\extra\foo\bar.pd

test-patch:
D:\home\declare_test.pd

test-patch contains:

[declare -stdpath extra/foo]

[bar]

pd start command:
D:\programme\pd-0.41\bin\pd.exe -verbose -open D:\home\declare_test.pd


output from pd-window:
----------------------

tried D:\\home\\declare_test.pd and succeeded
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar\\bar.m_i386 and failed
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar\\bar.dll and failed
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar.pd and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar.pd and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar.pd and failed
tried D:\\home\\..\\extra\\foo\\bar.pat and failed
tried D:\\home\\bar.pat and failed
tried D:\\programme\\pd-0.41\\extra\\bar.pat and failed
 bar
... couldn't create

it looks like [declare -stdpath] is adding the search path relative to the
patch instead of relative to pd.
