[PD] compiling pd vanilla problems on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard

Hans,

The gui rewrite version works fine on my computer, but I need
Pd-Vanilla/Extented for testing purposes.  Not to mention, there are various
small bugs in the gui rewrite branch that make it difficult to use when I'm
making music.

The problem is also that the wacom external I am working with * only * works
with the pd-gui-rewrite branch, but I don't know if that is because I
compiled it from source (with maybe a different version of Tcl/Tk) or
because you re-wrote the Tk code to use Apple Events in a different way.

About 64-bit, I've decided to just compile all my music software as 32-bit
for now, it seems to be too early for most apps still to run everything as
64-bit (and no real gain any way).  Most everything pre-compiled (ex.
pd-extended) is 32-bit, anyway.

So, that said, anyone have any suggestions on what is going wrong with my
libPdTcl.dylib? The version included with Pd-extended is also i386, yet tk
doesn't complain about it when running Wish...
