[PD] Packing pointers into lists

[Miller Puckette]

OK... looks like [list append] does deal with pointers almost correctly
(I forgot I had done that), but there is a bug when you send a new
list to its inlet re-entrantly.  I'll fix this for 0.41 but in the
meantime you can work around it by forcing a copy of the outgoing
message (send a list to "t b l" connected to the two inlets of "list append"
to make a copy of the list)...

cheers
Miller
