i put together a brief webpage explaining the new build process for pd on windows:

http://whats-your.name/pd/build_pd_mingw32.html

about 80% of the externals compiled on the first try, the majority that dont are in /chaos/ and make use of 'srand48' and 'drand48'... & a few others using network or microtime functions...

if youre using the main branch of CVS or 0.37.1, delete the MSW #ifdef's in s_entry.c just leaving the "else" case and same thing in m_pd.h for the dllimport/export lines...didnt want to step on any toes there in case anyone still is using (or god forbid even prefers) Visual Studio...
