[elephant-devel] Elephant 0.5.0 is released under the LLGPL

[Waldo Rubinstein]

In the previous versions of elephant, "make" built the  
corresponding .so files. In this latest version, it builds .dylib  
files (at least on my Mac).

I did correct the controller.lisp and bdb-enable.lisp to point to the  
new elephant library path instead of the elephant-0.3 path.

However, it still complaints about not finding libmemutil.so. It's  
like it doesn't even bother to look for libmemutil.dylib.
