[Ifeffit] new release of Athena, Artemis, and Hephaestus

[Matt Newville]

Hi Stefano,

I had the same experience with the new horae_update not working
for me this morning.  This did not work on either Mac OS X or
linux for me.  On both systems, the downloaded file
horae-05.tar.gz was an html file, which choked horae_update.

I had to delete this, download the tar.gz file by hand and then 
run the usual perl Makefile.PL ;make ; make install.

On Mac OS X, I also get the same error with athena, though
hephaestus, artemis, and diana all start up OK.  And athena 
started ok for me on linux.
