Ah, yeah. But to me, now, the difference doesn't matter much, as GF comes 
with both .h files in advance.

But I want all GF binaries to work on both your pd and pd-extended (and as 
much as possible pd-vanilla too).

It just means that none of them are made so that the binaries work on 
several versions of pd at once. I don't care about those. I want binaries 
that work on several versions of pd at once. (Can I repeat it once more ?)

This only works because the struct is directly a global variable, and not 
a result of malloc.

If the pd-l2ork binary of GridFlow happens to work with pd-extended as 
well, it's a coïncidence... with a picky debugger, you'd find that there 
is a bug with copying a small t_widgetbehavior as if it were a large one. 
I need some kind of if-statement to fix that.
