find the offending line in the source-code (according to the error
message it is in line 64 of "HID Utilities
Source/HID_Utilities_External.h" ) and disable it.

it's not bad practice. it's hell.

fix the makefile?
if the Makefile in question is somewhat standard, you should be able to
do so without having to touch any file, simply by appending the correct
PD_INCLUDE definition (PD_INCLUDE is a variable pointing to the path
where the Pd-headers live) to the make command.
e.g.
$ make PD_INCLUDE=/Applications/Pd.app/Contents/Resources/src/

(or whereever your Pd-headers really live)


unfortunatly some older build-system (afaict, hid is one of them) are
somewhat broken, as the append "/pd" to the PD_INCLUDE variable. in this
case you might try:
$ make CFLAGS="-I/Applications/Pd.app/Contents/Resources/src/"
