Well, I've never been able to articulate a clear and complete policy... Roughly speaking, I'm maintaining source and binary compatibility for anything that uses the public API (m_pd.h) and trying not to break things that use private APIs (g_vanas.h, s_stuff.h and, privater still, m_imp.h"). Meanwhile there's a profusion of ".h" files I didn't write (d_soundfile.h, g_all_guis.h, etc) that I've never formed a policy for.
In the case of get_sys_sleepgrain() I can write a new implementation that should work - in fact that might even be a good idea fro otehr reasons :) - but there's a lot more that I've changed in s_stuff.h, since I've revamped the whole audio interface. I bet a lot of other stuff will turn out to be broken, hmm.

Hi all
I just compiled Pd from master and found that I cannot load [fifop] from zexy anymore. When loading it, I get:
error: /home/roman/Documents/Pd/externals/zexy/zexy.pd_linux: /home/roman/Documents/Pd/externals/zexy/zexy.pd_linux: undefined symbol: get_sys_sleepgrain fifop error: ... couldn't create
I believe the related commit in Pd is 95b61465.
I haven't tried re-compiling zexy yet, because I am under the impression that Pd shouldn't break existing externals. I'm using 2.3.1 from Deken.
