Comment(by GeorgSWeber):
Let's start to create a "primes.p0.spkg" (better names appreciated ...)
which provides the "prime_sieve.c" code/functionality as a library.
Primary goal: The function "primes_interval()" is accessible from a
dynamic library "libprimes.so" resp. "libprimes.dll", which in turn
compiles (and works) on the platforms Sage supports, and actually is being
a part of some future version of Sage.
Secondary goal: This spkg also provides some precomputed tables (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.
I opened up a new ticket for this, #7539. The work on that ticket #7539 is
more or less an exercise in software engineering, and does hardly
interfere with the remaining work on this ticket here.
