 Replying to [comment:6 mabshoff]:
 > Since this ticket is relevant to eclib (I believe in sage-nt John
 mentioned that he had looked into using ratpoints from eclib again and
 that the current library interface worked, but my collection is a little
 hazy here) I am CCing him to keep him uptodate on this development. Once
 ratpoints is in Sage I consider it desirable to use the library from eclib
 unless there is some unforeseen technical reason not to do it.

 Thanks.  It is not quite as easy as that, and one part of eclib will need
 to be rewritten to use this library, but it has all the ingredients which
 I needs so that is possible and would only take a day or too.  That would
 also mean that *either* I put in a compiler switch to eclib Makefiles to
 tell it to use ratpoints instead of its own code, *or* I rely on ratpoints
 for ever, which gives people who download mwrank by itself will have
 something else they need to install first (as well as NTL and pari).
