[PD] [PD-announce] pd 0.47-0 test 1 released

[AP Vague]

I did some test patches with the two versions that are compiled for OSX and
both had some problems with crashing Pd. I hadn't made much that was
complicated, so I don't think it's my fault such as a stack overflow. My
machine is a 2011 MacBook Pro running OSX 10.11.03.
