Yes, probably in several ways.  One I used is to patch Pd to print out 
the list of all classes registered when they get registered (and the 
library names when they are loaded), so the first lot are internal, and 
the rest external.  Using this you can get some plain lists of objects 
from different libraries.

Then you can use some shell scripts (and the lists you generated from 
the patched Pd) to filter out all the internal objects from the patch 
files, and get a list of all the externals used.  For example code:

https://code.goto10.org/svn/maximus/2008/pdpatchinfo/

(may have slightly bitrotted, and probably the object lists are out of 
date by now).
