[PD] adding xsample library to Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC7

[alexandre r. decoupigny]

cheers hc., one problem:
where do i find the org.puredata.pd.plist file ? i downloaded the xsample
folder for mac osx from thomas' website. the folder  contains the binary,
two demos and help patches.
 is there another meaning hidden with when you say "comes with the Pd
binary" ? how do i obtain it ?
