Not if you make the pd executable setuid root. To do so, run this (assuming your pd is installed in /usr/local/bin/pd):
sudo chown root /usr/local/bin/pd sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/pd
Then pd will always run as root regardless of who started it. This is a modest security risk though, setting any app setuid root is.
