I rather think you're confused by the term "loading a library". In
pd-extended lingo, the term "loading a library" has been misused to also
mean setting a couple of "-path"s. The traditional use of the term
describes what happens when you use the "-lib" flag or [declare -lib
...]. polymap prints its message, when it's loaded like that:
$ pd -lib polymap
