Forgive me please, but I think the core of Pd, like send/receive behaviour, should not be changed behind Miller's back...
Probably I made a mistake when merging the "set" messages, thats why nobody reported the bug against the external packages.
I got sick after that day and spend half of my holidays in bed, thats why I couldn't continue working/testing the changes I made.
About changing the core of pd behind Millers back:
This was definitely not my intention, I rather tried to setup a repository for those who like to send patches to Miller, in order to have the possibility to test them, select those that fit and throw away those who are useless.
Finally Miller will have the say what he accepts for pd and what not. I think it is very important to make development for pd as open as possible, same for GEM. I am just trying to propose a "procedure" how to contribute to pd, because I think that several contributions may get lost because there is not an official way to do so.
We had several discussions about how to do that, and in order not to increase the load upon Miller I did it this way, maybe there are better ways ..., or maybe its a bad idea in general.
What do you think ?

Btw, 'receive74' is settable, but
only via its inlet, never remotely,
only if it has no argument (apparently for compatibility
reasons?).
The 'send74' is not settable (it is the 'forward74', which is...)
