[PD] ceammc error on windows (was: list item picker widget)

[Christof Ressi]

That's because they apparently dynamically link against libstdc++ (and 
probably also libgcc) but don't ship the DLL next to the external. 
That's a common problem with MinGW based software written in C++. You 
can't assume that those libraries are present on the users system. You 
either have to link statically or ship the dependencies. (At least on 
Windows, I strongly prefer static linking - especially for plugins!)

Either way, please contact the person who uploaded the package and ask 
them to fix this! Also, the project repository should make it clear in 
their installation instructions that it's necessary to bundle the 
dependencies. (Maybe they already say that, but the person who uploaded 
the package didn't read it :-)
