...well, to be fair, the switch was done with 10.3.x, which is about  
4 years ago at this point...and look at this as a good thing, because  
I remember everyone complaining in the pre-10.3 days about the lack  
of dlopen() standardizing...

...it depends:  I wouldn't do the check fully based on osx version,  
but perhaps also include pd version, since I don't recall if the  
older NSBundle stuff works with "dynamiclibs" or not...

...always keeping us on our toes...
