So I guess you are saying that backporting would not be so simple.
No, I'm not saying that.
Or how would get around that?
By defining a class called "list".
What happens is that Pd sees that you are trying to send a "list" message to receive-symbol objectmaker but that it doesn't have a "list" method, so pd attempts to replace the selector by one of "bang" "float" "symbol" "pointer".
