[PD] Rradical [originator] with no [prepend] solution....

[chun lee]

Hi there:

While reinstalling my system, I have encountered this problem with
[originator] in the memento of rradical abstractions.

Because there is a [prepend RRADICAL.dummy] in the originator.pd and
although I have a [prepend] but its not the right [prepend] wanted by the
[originator]. As far as I know, there are at least 2 [prepend] our there.

I did a quick work around using [pack],[symbol] and [route], which seems to
work so far and it eliminates the [prepend] dependency. Please see the
attached patch. 

Could anyone take a look and see if this is a better way then having
[prepend]. I am particularly not too sure about the [route list] I did at
the end, I think there is a better way.
