Hi Jonathan,

I manage to "steal" another OS X (10.9 Mavericks this time).
I confirm you that toxy, flib, flatspace and pidip are not loaded.
This time array is created at first time, but without the name (array1)
that appears after a while. I get several time "Old command at
g_array.c:1355:pdtk_select_all_gop_widgets".
Moreover at load time Pd connects the main audio output devices at Airplay
and putting Built-in Output it remains connects to Airplay.

Best regards,

Marco
