It usually works OK if you add the path to your existing libraries and 
externals to the new pd, if the new pd is not installed but just put 
there. e.g. I have pd039_2_test7 from Miller's site in C:\pd_039 while 
the installed version is in C:\Program Files\pd. As long as I don't 
double-click on a pd patch I can use pd_039 with the libraries from 
C:\Program Files\pd\extra.
