[PD] pd on MacPro intel Xeon 64 bit

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Just curious, why wouldn't there ever be a 64-bit version of GEM?   
I've been thinking that a 64-bit build of Pd-extended would be nice  
to have, especially because using 64-bit floats as Pd's native format  
would make it much more flexible.  You could represent UNIX  
timestamps properly, for example.
