[PD] compiling externals on osx

Here is goes. My pd is now on applications so the path to  the app 
package is /applications/Pd-0.38-0test7.app
but the pd executable would be (if i am right) 
/applications/Pd-0.38-0test7.app/contents/resources/bin/pd

I have unzipped the externals file to the desktop and i cd to the 
externals/build/darwin where the makefile is, then i do make as it 
suggests on the readme file.

i found out that m_pd.h was on the src folder. I must have been blind 
this morning not to see it.
Actually i am starting to feel embarrased that i am unable to solve this 
despite your instructions. Thank you very much for your patience and 
help. i am new to mac and osx and i guess this is also not helping much 
i find myself often lost in docens of windows open. I dont understand 
how to deal with the window system. I am planning to install linux as i 
am more happy with the way it deals with navigating within directories 
and stuff like that, but i am disgressing... I am gonna send and email 
to the whole list again about ideas i have been thinking about all this.

on the mean time i keep trying ...

this is the makefile for darwin as it comes in the distribution:
