This ticket was split away from #7013:
Let's create a "primes.p0.spkg" (better names appreciated ...) which
provides the "prime_sieve.c" code/functionality from T. Oliveira e Silva
as a library.
Primary goal: The function "primes_interval()" from "prime_sieve.c" is
accessible from a dynamic library "libprimes.so" resp. "libprimes.dylib"
(resp. "libprimes.dll" if Cygwin is in our scope), which in turn compiles
(and works correctly ...) on the platforms Sage supports, to be a part of
future versions of Sage.
Secondary goal: This spkg also provides (i.e. contains) certain
precomputed tables from Kevin Stueve (which in a Sage installation will be
installed under "data/prime_pi_tables/").
Tertiary goal: Provide the LMO code/functionality from Victor Miller in
the same way, too. (Eventually outside the scope of this ticket, so
potentially another follow-up ticket.)
Maintainers till end 2010: Andrew Rohana, Georg S. Weber
