[PD-dev] string support and generic types

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Hey,

IOhannes and Miller worked out a solution for declaring generic  
types, it didn't sound to hard to implement.  For the next Pd- 
extended release, I think we'll probably should remove the Martin's  
string patch in favor of this approach.

I want to include the string support, but I think it is important  
that it is included in a way that will remain useful when things are  
changed to support this generic atom registry.  It should also be  
backwards compatible, and I don't have a clear idea of whether it is.
