Restore pd-cyclone, based on slightly newer distfile available online.
Cyclone is a library of PureData classes, bringing some level of compatibility
between Max/MSP and Pd environments. The original goal of cyclone was to create
a collection of Max/MSP objects for PureData. This was in the 2000s area,
Max/MSP version 4.6. Since then MAX evolved its architecture and file format to
something that is incompatible with PureData. Compatibility in patch file level
is limited to this very old version of Max/MSP.

JACK option added.
Enough code was bundled to use JACK, so it should be possible to output directly
to jackd, although this is experimental.

This error check should not be enabled by default and breaks

After installing the oss package, a kernel panic occurs every time the
computer is shut down.
This is because the mixer RC script tries to save the mixer values after
the OSS module is unloaded. We can avoid this by making OSS unload after
this is done.
