yes, it's a stable release.

however, Gem does some magic to add it's own path to the search-paths of
Pd (if it is not already added), and while doing so it might hit a
binary incompatibility between purr-data and Pd.

Gem will use the safer "add-to-path" message to "pd", if it detects a
compatible version of Pd (comparing the output of sys_getversion()
against (0,47)). this seems to fail with purr-data, so it falls back to
calling "namelist_append" to append the path to the "sys_searchpath"
variable.

probably jonathan can shed some light why this crashes.

i'd suggest using https://git.iem.at/pd/Gem as upstream (or
https://github.com/umlaeute/Gem).
i still mirror to sourceforge for legacy reasons, but who knows...
