[PD] we want threads !!!!

[ydegoyon at free.fr]

hi, all,

annoyed by some recurrent issues in PD, i made the following
patches to PD's sources :

d_soundfile.c : load the sounfile in a thread to avoid audio dropouts.
this patch concerns the "soundfiler" object.

s_inter.c : send messages to the GUI using a message buffer
and a thread to avoid audio dropouts.

this introduces a lot of threads and Miller
objected once using threads is dangerous.

so, if you like danger, you might try these....
it's experimental still but with the help of some beta-testers,
it might get consistent soon.

cheers,

sevy/yves
