elib -> emacs

[karl@freefriends.org (Karl Berry)]

Years ago, there was a package "elib" which aimed to provide generic
functionality beyond that in Emacs itself.  The last release was in
1995, and is at ftp://ftp.lysator.liu.se/pub/emacs/elib-1.0.tar.gz.

The elib maintainers (Inge Wallin and Per Cederqvist) are (obviously)
not working on it any more.  They suggested that much of what was in
elib is now in Emacs, but don't keep up with current Emacs developments,
so can't easily check if there is anything in elib which should be moved
into Emacs.

Could someone here please take a look at that elib tarball and see if
there is anything in there that could still be useful in Emacs?

Thanks,
Karl
