Pd vanilla set's the NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows defaults flag to false for the 
GUI process which disables the automatic window state saving in 10.7+.

You can do this on the command line with *something* like:

defaults write org.puredata.gui NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

I write "something" because I don't remember what domain Pd-extended used for 
the GUI. You can look in the preferences files in:

~/Library/Preferences

and see what plists are there or org.puredata, then try reading via:

defaults read org.puredata.gui

If you see the pd core settings such as audio device, samplerate, etc then it's 
the wrong file. If you see one which has the value set, it's likely a newer 
vanilla preferences file.

I also wrote about how this system works on macOS in mac/README.txt:
