Steps To Reproduce:
1 If you have not already installed LAME, download the ZIP file of LAME and extract libmp3lame.dylib to an arbitrary location. 2 Launch Audacity and open Libraries Preferences. Press the "Locate" button for LAME. If you are not already where LAME was installed, navigate there. 3 Observe that "libmp3lame.dylib" is greyed out and cannot be selected, despite the file filter says "Only libmp3lame.dylib". 4 Change the file filter to the choice for all dylib files or all files and libmp3lame.dylib becomes ungreyed.
Release Note:
GROUP: LAME * (Mac) '''If you use Libraries Preferences to locate LAME manually, it is necessary to change the "File type:" filter''' to the choice for Dynamic Libraries or All Files in order to make libmp3lame.dylib selectable.

This one just evaporates when we have built-in LAME with 2.3.2
