Hey,
This is probably mostly for IOhannes. IIRC, the code that causes
the "error: maximum object loading depth 1000 reached" stuff was
related to the hexloader. Its checked into Pd-extended, but the
hexloader isn't used in Pd-extended right now.
Is there some other reason to include this patch? Here's the
original reference.
well, it might be used for any sys_loader dealing with abstractions
(or rather: objects that include other objects).

That does sound useful indeed. Are there any plans for such a
loader in the near future? I think we should try to keep Pd-
extended as close to Pd-vanilla as possible, so I am thinking that
we should remove patches that aren't being directly used, but then
we can add them back in once they are being used.
IOhannes,
Mind if I remove this patch for this release? I think that the 1000
line "already loaded" dump is currently too common, for whatever
reason, and since this functionality isn't currently in use, as far as
I know, I think it makes sense to keep this patch out until the whole
abstraction loader thing is figured out.
I am fine with adding it back in whenever its needed.
