AW: [PD] howto load fiddle~ lib?

[Miller Puckette]

I've looked and this is a problem in the pd-0.34-3 release... I don't know what
it comes from.  It might work to copy "extra" from an earlier Pd release into
pd-0.34-3...  I'll fix it up in the next couple of days (also the netreceive
bug) and put out a new "34" release for both platforms...

cheers
Miller
