[PD] pdmax - broken pipe in macos?

If by any chance you're using pd 0.52 (test version) then I think
it can crash when used as a subprocess (this should be fixed for the next
test release).  If you're using Pd 0.51-4 the problem is something else.

The "broken pipe" message means the subprocess died suddenly for some reason.
But I can't think of an easy way to figure out what killed it.
