The FreeBSD port for PD has until recently been unable to load external objects due to incorrect values in the src/s_loader.c file. Currently s_loader.c assumes an i386 architecture and a .pd_freebsd file extension whereas the rest of the tree assumes .pd_linux in the case of FreeBSD.
The attatched patch has been comitted downstream in FreeBSD ports and solves this issue by removing the special case for FreeBSD and treating it as the same as Linux, GNU/Hurd and Debian/kFreeBSD.
Also, FreeBSD does not have libdl but does provide dlfcn.h: this patch adds a special case for FreeBSD to provide access to the dlfcn header.
Tested on FreeBSD-RELEASE-10.2 with pd-0.46.7 on an intel amd64 processor.
