Also, this thread brings up the question how other programs do it (like Max/MSP or audio editing apps) - do they do something forbidden? Huh?!
To answer my own question: Browsing through the Max/MSP SDK it becomes clear that there are quite serious restrictions what is allowed in DSP time. Pure Data is much more liberal here which of course has many advantages. And for audio editing the solution is probably that these systems are pretty static so that memory allocation and other critical processes are simply not needed.
