[PD] [declare -stdpath] relative to what?

[Miller Puckette]

Oops, my mistake.

In "declare" systax, "-stdpath" does take an argument... if you give it
foo/bar, for example, the directory searched is .../pd/foo/bar.

My bad for naming it the same as the command-line argument, which does
something different.

cheers
