well, it's almost done.
within the next month or 2, i will hopefully have all patches ready, to 
make Pd fully "double floating point" enabled (that is: you have to 
chose at compile time; all externals have to be recompiled for this; and 
no, i have no plans to get a dual-precision (both 32bit and 64bit) 
support into Pd)

what is more, just raising the precision won't necessarily boost the 
cleanness of the sound (btw, this is not the objective of my double Pd 
project);
Pd could have better oscillators even with 32bit, by using better 
interpolation/extrapolation algorithms.
