[PD] pyext compilation

[Vincent Rioux]

hi Thomas,

that was it.

well, i am not sure about that - i tried to compile flext and py from

svn co  https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/trunk/externals

without chance.

yes, this seems to work! it compiles and load at least.
Thanks a lot!

(i just noticed that you can't compile pyext without py_num or py_array 
support, but this really is a minor issue).

Sounds really fair.
