This means that you are loading a Gem that is not included in the Pd- 
extended installer.  The rc4 one would look something like this:

GEM: Graphics Environment for Multimedia
GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs
GEM: compiled: Jul 19 2007

Sounds like you are using an old version of Gem.  I you trash ~/ 
Library/Preferences/org.puredata.pd.plist, then it'll use the default  
embedded preferences, and load the internal versions of Gem and PDP.
