Sounds like you are trying to compile the latest CVS version of Pd.   
The whole Pd-extended build system is setup around 0.39.2.  Many of  
the patches that are applied are already included in the latest CVS  
version, hence the "reversed (or previously applied)" errors.

If you want to build Pd yourself, stick with 0.39.2.  If you want to  
try to get the latest CVS version building with Pd-extended, I don't  
think anyone's done it yet.  That'll happen after a proper release of  
0.39.2 of Pd-extended.
