OK, I'm liking "pd_win32" more and more. If Microsoft makes a new dll format that permits bundling, that would be a good moment to change the suffix again...
Which leads me to a question I always wanted to ask, but never dared to. What should be done on platforms that support more than one architecture, like linux or macosx ? Obvioulsy a xxx.pd_linux from a powerpc machine is not usable on a pentium, which makes bundling impossible. One would need a pd_linux_368, pd_linux_ppc, etc ...

"win32" would be nice to distinguish between that and "win64". However, if both 32-bit and 64-bit executables are likely to be packed into a same file, then ".pd_win32" as a suffix wouldn't make that much sense anymore.
it would make it much easier to figure out which files need to be deleted when upgrading to pd64, in 2038...
