Ok. I figured it out. I thought I was going crazy and, since I many different 
builds of Pd for testing various things, I was also getting a bit lost as to 
what I might have changed and when.

At some point, I had enabled the "Use callbacks" checkbox in the Audio dialog. 
Using Forget all settings, then restarting Pd and enabling that checkbox will 
make Pd hang. Try it out Alex...

I know various questions keep coming up about this feature. Is it needed and, 
if so, is it needed on all platforms. For example, if it doesn't apply to macOS 
maybe we can hide the checkbox.
