That requires > 40.0, right?  Also, there doesn't seem to be a help 
patch for [declare] -- I've seen it mentioned here on the list, but is 
it documented anywhere?  It looks like it would add [polyWaveSynth]s 
folder to PD's path -- but how would PD find [polyWaveSynth] to load it 
in the first place?

Plus, does this really avoid any problems from including dependent 
objects (possibly creating multiple copies) inside abstraction folders?
