[PD] externs: pd-extended vs. 0.39-2 vs. wiki page

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

There is no Pd-extended vs. Pd-0.39.2, Pd-extended just hasn't caught  
up to 0.39-2, mostly because 0.39 did not compile out of CVS for a  
while, therefore I didn't use it.  RC8 is the final release of  
Pd-0.38.4-extended, which will go up on SourceForge, then we'll start  
in on Pd-0.39.2-extended.  Any help would be greatly appreciated,  
especially in the form of getting your code working within Pd-extended,  
and making nice example patches that "just work" in Pd-extended.

realize his wishes.
Now that he can realize them, he must either change them, or perish.
