[PD-dev] moocow readdir plans for Pd-extended 0.41.4

[Bryan Jurish]

moin Hans,

I'm surprised it ever did ... that actual build call is wrapped in 2
recursive $(MAKE) calls (as viewed from the $(MAKE) for
externals/Makefile), both of which are of the form:

	$(MAKE) -C somewhere/else myTarget || echo "MOO: ... failed"

... since 'echo' always succeeds (afaik), these rules should never break
anything above them.  Also, the "MOO:" messages are handy for me when
grepping through the logs.  I started doing this after I did in fact
stop all the auto-builds after first adding the 'moocow' target.  Since
that was far too embarrassing, I decided to do it this way instead ;-)

anyhoo, [readdir] may be building on win32 as early as tomorrow (i
expect it will, but haven't tested 'cuz i'm too lazy).  the win32
version is limping a bit for now (all entries are reported as type
'unknown'), but the guts ought to work.

marmosets,
	Bryan
