[PD] SQLite3DBv0.03

[Mike McGonagle]

So, then do you think it would be better to link up to the system
version? Or should I have it statically compile everything together
into the external? While I don't know how large it is on Linux, but
the Mac external (with the SQLite Amalgamated compile into the
external) is about 660K.

I have had the discussion with many people who "advocate" Linux about
how "user friendly" it really is, and something tells me that this
'and just do another "make pd_linux"' might not be what we want for
NON-Technical users. I mean, so far there appears to be a few people
who are interested in using this, but because there is no make file,
they have not been able to try this.
