Hello PD devs. If there is a real bug manager besides this mailing list, please point me there and I'd be glad to post this there. I found a reproducable bug where GUI object lables disappear when moving the patch between platforms.
I'm using RCS for simple version control on my patches and rsync to move between OS X and Linux and 100% of the time random GUI object lables are gone each time I rsync.
The OS X release is the binary disk image and the Linux version is version 0.37.1 TEST1 compiled 22:27:40 Nov 30 2003

Uh, that's an old version of Pd. Please upgrade to the latest pd 0.37 from Miller's site or to CVS. At least one major GUI bug was fixed there.
Ciao
Currently Krzysztof is running a bug manager himself, so the best way to file bugs for now is to post a description and a patch that demonstates the bug. There are grand plans to set up a proper bug filing system in the works.

Turns out it was an old Linux version. It's hard to keep up outside of CVS. It seems that audio software in Linux distros is always a compromise between the stable or old version the distro packages and the potentially unstable CVS. Whatever...just some extra steps in the free software extravaganza. Sometimes now, when I use a commercial OS, double click, and it works as advertised I think "what a novel idea".

Your bug was fixed in the current official stable version by Miller. Your distribution ships a very old test(!) version, which introduced this bug. Maybe you could file a bug report that they should upgrade their pd package and either ship the lastest stable version or an older stable version or a newer experimental version, but not ship the old unstable and broken beta version?
