Yo, I think I saw this long ago, anyway, looks like the solution is here

(and, by the way, you can still run Pd from a shell script by (if Pd
is Pd-extended.app) running
"/Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd" - everything
else will work as usual.  Finally, you can also, I think, add items to
the "startup flags:" box in "Preferences>Startup..." or use a ~/.pdrc
file (which is just the flags you want to pass, one flag per line))
