could it be (as lucas suspected) that both problems come from the 32bit
libraries embedded in the msw/pdprototype.tgz?

or put otherwise: when do the problems occur? during the `make` step or
during the `msw-app.sh` step?

how about "wine pd-0.48-1test2-ia64/bin/pd.exe"?

"puts" never really worked for me on windows (not even in a proper VM).
i think this is related to char/widechar.
you might have more luck with logging to a file, something like

~~~
set logfile [open "pd-gui.log" "w" ]

# ...

puts $logfile "foo"
# ...
puts $logfile "bar"

~~~
