if i drag a [gate] object around the gui window, or save a patch containing a [gate], the [gate] object is saved as a different type depending on what the last message to its left inlet was. (0==text, 1==object, 2==msg, 3==numberbox, ...)
That looks like a problem of using a very old m_pd.h, so old that t_text would have a different number of fields in it, such that writing to t_gate's x_open would instead write to t_text's te_type.
However, I don't see any further evidence of this (no old m_pd.h in that directory); and it certainly wouldn't explain that thing about moving the object around: [gate] does not define anything that reacts to the object being moved.
