[PD] Unity and libpd

[Christof Ressi]

Note that some externals might need to be recompiled with -DPDINSTANCE 
if they contain references to global symbols like s_float, s_list, etc. 
(that's why it's better to use gensym("float") and gensym("list") 
instead of &s_float or &s_list)

Also, older versions of libpd produced a Windows DLL with the name 
libpd.dll, but Pd externals on Windows link against pd.dll (symbols are 
not auto-imported). This has been fixed recently (1 year ago?).
