Sorry for that, this has to be about the first time I'm posting on a 
mailing list.

So far it's going well, it works on the iphone simulators and builds 
just fine with libpd.

On the device, I get an EXC_ARM_DA_ALIGN error in cas.hpp during this 
function call:

return __sync_bool_compare_and_swap_8(reinterpret_cast<volatile long 
long*>(addr), old.l, nw.l);

this is probably some architecture specific stuff that I'll have to fix.

I'm planning on a pull request as soon as I find a solid, reproducible 
process for iOS. So far it's been mostly hacking with your help and 
whatever I could find online.
