hmm.

i guess there's two separate bugs here

1. i *think*, on macOS Pd should first try to load the arch-specific 
extensions (`.d_i386`), and only then it should fall back to loading the 
fat binary (`.d_fat`).
obviously it doesn't do that [1] right now.

2. if it fails to open a given binary (e.g. because of the wrong 
architecture), it should continue to try the other file extensions.
could you provide the full (related) output of the Pd-console, when it 
tries (and fails) to load the i386 binary?
