if there is a [coll x] created already, Max will create a dummy
object instead of [s x] or [r x] (this is similar to a dashed-out
Pd object of an unknown class).  If an [s x] or [r x] was created
first, [coll x] would be dummy.  I consider it a bad design that
neither should nor could be emulated in cyclone.  Hence, there
is just a warning.
