Does this work at all on 10.4/Tiger?
As for building it, how do you build it yourself? That's usually a
good starting point for adding it to the auto-build. If it is an
xcode project, you can use the command line tool xcodebuild.
Also, it seems that .pat should have a separate entry, something like
this:
<dict>
<key>UTTypeConformsTo</key>
<string>public.plain-text</string>
<key>UTTypeIdentifier</key>
<string>org.puredata.max-patch</string>
<key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key>
<dict>
<key>public.filename-extension</key>
<array>
<string>pat</string>
</array>
</dict>
</dict>
