Shame on me, i did have two different sssad folders in my path. Now i've
cleaned things up and there's only the one from s-abstractions - but that's
not the solution yet.
I've noticed that s-abstractions dropped [presetstore] and that may have a
good reason. Is it possible that it's actually not compatible with current
sssad?
I've also noticed [saver] in s-abstrations/sssad which seems to be like
[presetstore] (except that [presetstore] saved to subpatches while [saver]
saves to textfiles). I've tried it and it doesn't work for me: "error:
$1state-11.sssad: write failed". (It does create 0-byte files in
s-abstrations/sssad though.)

[datastore] however, is still part of s-abstractions (it saves a single
state to a subpatch), and it doesn't work here. I tried datastore-help.pd
and it saves an empty state. What's interesting, is that if I try it while
my other big patch is open, it consistently triggers a segfault.
