[PD] [closebang] issue ...

hi !

i just went across a problem that makes me guess that iemguts' 
[closebang] seems to be relying on creation order to work correctly.

attached are two simple example patches that should write the content of 
a [text] object to a file on the disk when the patch is closed. both 
seem to work (as a connected [print] object reports its bang correctly), 
but only example nr 1 actually writes the file.

the difference is, that in example 1 [closebang] was created as the very 
first object in the main patch. in the second example [closebang] was 
created after everything else.

can someone please test it and confirm/falsify ? if this is a bug, can 
it be corrected, or is that impossible due to PD's patching design ? 
probably just needs some note in the helpfile ...

best

oliver
