Summary: number2 labels ending with '%' cause PD crash

Initial Comment:
In a number2 atom, when a label ending with '%' (or '%_', as well) is used, right-clicking on the number2 box and selecting "Properties" will cause PD to crash.

I have not found any other characters that cause this, and it does not happen with regular number atoms.

this happens on Mac OS X 10.5.6/Intel using Pd-vanilla 0.42-4 and Pd
version 0.41.4-extended-20090413.  Seems like GNU/Linux is not affected.

Message:
I did some checks and the properties don`t show up (no crash here, too) if
you:
 - take any iemgui-object 
 - set the label to anything%
 - set the x offset to 0 (which is the default for vslider and number2)

If you change it to anything not zero, it works (again).

Tested on yesterday`s svn of pd-extended on Linux.

Pd 0.41 doesn't crash, but produces this instead of opening the Properties
dialog:

wrong # args: should be "pdtk_iemgui_dialog id mainheader dim_header wdt
min_wdt wdt_label hgt min_hgt hgt_label rng_header min_rng min_rng_label
max_rng max_rng_label rng_sched lin0_log1 lilo0_label lilo1_label loadbang
steady num_label num snd rcv gui_name gn_dx gn_dy gn_f gn_fs bcol fcol
lcol"

vslider acts the same but interestingly hslider is not affected!

Forgot to mention, this is happening on Pd version
0.40.3-extended-20080724, and also on 0.40.3-extended-20080603.

I don't have any older versions handy to test.

I'm running Intel OS X 10.4.11.
