AFAICT, the main issue is that multi-instance Pd misses symbols for
certain global variables, most notably s_float, s_symbol, s_bang, etc.
The problem is that these are really exported global structs. If they
were *pointers*, we could simply make them point to the corresponding
field in the main Pd instance. But in this case I don't really see a
solution...

I lean much more on the side that PDINSTANCE is a low-level, per

i wonder what the penalty would be to turn on PDINSTANCE on Pd?
obviously a problem with externals, but maybe we can come up with some
clever hack (under the assumption, that Pd (the app) only runs a
single instance, even if compiled with multi-instance support) to use
legacy externals - if that is even possible.
apart from that?
