According to katja, that would trigger a zombie apocalypse in external land. And the only way to tell the zombies from the survivors would be to... *gulp*...
actually read external library code.
Personally, I'd rather get eaten by a zombie than do that.

I really wish Pd had a 32 bit integer data type for counters, and other places where integers are appropriate.

the only problem is that the actually used numeric type (single precision floating point) is rather limited. we should have switched to doubles long ago.
