I'll inevitably be jumping in on this, mostly likely before November.
So I created a wiki page for us to keep notes on this whole thing:

What I'd like to see is Pd on Android, but I think that could be a
little bit tricky to get into a form that is easily distributable
without rooting the phone. The G1 already runs Debian, so you could
just install the 'puredata' package once you have Debian on your G1.
I successfully compiled Pd with the Android NDK a few weeks ago,
and my
colleague wrote an audio driver which calls back into Java space
via the JNI
and produces sound, but there is a bug somewhere with [vd~],
[tabread~] and
friends so it's not 100% yet. If this was working it would make it
possible to
build and distribute Pd for non-rooted Androids.
Unfortunately my hands are tied with regards to releasing the code,
but I am
pushing hard to make it happen anyway. This what I get for whoring
my mind to
proprietary companies. :(
If anyone else wants a shot, I can tell you it's actually really
simple to make
Pd compile with the NDK, you just need to make your own Android.mak
file with a
list of object files to be built and the right flags set. You can
get this list
of object files from the Linux generated Makefile. I had to also
tweak the
source a bit to set a new flag called __ANDROID__ in some places
and not in
others. If you follow the model of __LINUX__ it's pretty close. Oh
no, I've
said too much.. the suits are here.. I can hear them knocking..
going to get my
shotgun.. I may be some time-
Chris.
