as far as I'm concerned, if I needed that feature, I'd consider just 
recompiling, instead of going as far as building a workaround, especially 
if the workaround has to emulate [vd~] as well.

Nowadays, I use [vd~] all of the time (almost whenever I do audio).

OTOH, building a [vd~] replacement as tables means that I could easily 
replace [tabread4~] by Cyrille Henry's [tabread4c~].

But I use silly numbers of [vd~], which tend to take most of the cpu in 
many of my audio patches, so, I wouldn't want to replace by anything 
significantly slower.
