So, I guess, the opposite way in which Max does this, is a bit safer. There is a mapping file, in which Tim might be willing to put a line:
max objectfile value bettervalue
i'm not a big fan of this (both a mapping file and a -rename flag), since this _will_ make pd patches uncompatible to other machines using the same pd version.
As I understand Miller's motivation, this option would only be for things like developement. THis way you could test some changes to builtin objects without having to recompile Pd all the time.
that's the problem ... portability of patches should be our first priority, the second priority is to be compatible to future versions, but not neccessary to older versions...
Currently we have another problem: That there are 2.5 parallel versions, which are neither older or newer than each other. (Or you could say, that currently Miller's version is the newest, this might change again this weekend. ;)
