a0=(3b-a-3c+d)/2            (same as c3)
a1=a-5b/2+2c-d/2           (same as c2)
a2=(c-a)/2                      (same as c1)

(b is c0)

f(x)=(((a0*x+a1)*x+a2)*x-+b

Actually that's just the same set of coefficients that I named in a
previous post... just in a different form.  So, that's just the sort
of thing we could add to pd-extended....
It's good to know what other people are doing in their software too
