In the past, these kinds of requests have often started friendly little flamewars on the PD list. The reason being that most people in the PD community hold very close to the free software/open source ideology, and the idea of a closed, non-modifiable patch runs against their ideas of open-ness.
Generally, people expect from PD what MAX does--i.e. that you can compile a closed, self-sufficient executable app from it.
What I mean to say is that the people who request "executable" patches expect from PD what MAX does.
Sorry for my brain-fart! ;-)
