Please try the attached patch.

Eli, is this an acceptable way of modifying a lisp string, or is there
a better way?

I considered just removing the version since it doesn't matter much
for the app bundle, but then I realised that would also remove it in
the eln cache in .emacs.d, which isn't ideal, so I ended up replacing
the dots with underscores.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix NS self contained eln location (bug#49271)

* Makefile.in:
* configure.ac: Change eln file install location to
Contents/Frameworks.
* src/comp.c (hash_native_abi): Replace dots with underscores in the
eln install location as the macOS code-signing tool won't sign the
files if the parent directories have dots.
