updated vanilla libdir to work with latest Makefile but commented out helpfiles since I'm not quite sure whether to use Miller's or the pddp versions

+These are just the objects included in Miller's Pd compiled as stand-alone
+libraries based on their source files.  Its a quick and dirty hack to strip Pd
+down to the bare essentials so that the namespace will be fully functional.
+
+The lib_x_* files are generated using the included script, generate.sh.  They
+should not be modified directly.  Ideally, these would be compiled as
+individual objects.
+
+The files named after the classes are GUI objects that originally had g_
+prefixes on the file names.
+
+This stuff is currently here as a proof of concept for turning Pd core into a
+micro-language.  If you want to start modifying these, then we should discuss
+how these should be maintained along with Miller's changes.
+
+DO NOT CHANGE THIS CODE!
+------------------------
+
+This is not a place to fix bugs or add improvements.  This library is an exact
+mirror of the code in Pd-vanilla, warts and all.  The aim is 100%
+compatibility in a libdir form.  This way we can have libdirs for each version
+number, and then choose to use old versions of this library for compatibilty
+(i.e. vanilla-0.42.5, vanilla-0.41.4, vanilla-0.40.3).
