[PD-dev] Pd hangs on exit on macOS

I tested with the following builds from Miller's site: 0.49-1, 0.49-1-i386, 0.49-0test5, 0.48-2, 0.48-1, 0.48-0. (0.47 and previous do not run as the GUI can't find Tk 8.4).

*All* hang my on system after doing the following:

1. open Pd app
2. turn on DSP
3. open audio test patch
4. turn off DSP

GUI goes unresponsive and pd core process pegs CPU. I then have to use "killall pd" on the command line.

Pd-extended does not hang and is able to restart audio after toggling DSP.

This is a strange issue as I don't remember when it started happening. I feel like Pd was running fine when I first updated to macOS 10.14, so I wonder if it's some sort of issuer with my system only. This is also not a problem on my macOS 10.13 machine at work.
