Sorry for unearthing this old thread, but it seems that the issue with the
missing cyclone objects hasn't been fixed yet. I just had someone report it
to me on the AUR (where I'm maintaining the Arch pd-l2ork package).

I consider this a real bug. Like it or not, but people have patches made
with other Pd flavors, which they would like to run with pd-l2ork, and
prepend apparently is one of those objects that actually gets used by some
people. Is there a really good reason to exclude this specific object when
everything else from cyclone is there? Otherwise it just makes running
"legacy" patches harder for no good reason.
