[PD] PD vista compatability

[Roman Haefeli]

hello Geert

according to this:

http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/vista_cost.html

working with media in windoze vista isn't much fun. and if what it's
written there, is true, it's seriously arguable, if softwares like
puredata ever will work fine on this platform. i am not a specialist
myself and i can only reproduce, what i've heard from others, so maybe i
am totally wrong. at least i heard that the mplayer-people have real
troubles with vista.
