[PD] cannot use declare for loading sound files

[Miller Puckette]

I'd suggest turning on "verbose" andwatching it search for the file.  When
you use relative names for files loaded from abstractions, the "relativity"
can be from where the abstraction is found, or from the calling patch, depending
on where the declare object is.  It can get very confusing!

cheers
