-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
1. Denis Simon's GP scripts (in data/extcode/pari/simon) need updating.
2. Using them via gp2c would be more efficient.
The scripts have been combined into one and revised to make the gp2c-
compliant, and gp2c has been used to make a single C file from them. This
can be compiled (once, on building Sage) into a shared library file which
can then be used in a GP session, the result being faster running of all
the functions.
To implement this we (1) created a new spkg containing the C file, which
on bring installed puts tha .so into data/extcode/pari/simon (together
with a helper GP script); (2) patched the extcode repository (removing
the old scripts); (3) patched the sage library repository, mainly to
adapt the interface in elliptic_curves/gp_simon.py but also to correct the
doctest output (due to the script upgrade giving different generators in
some cases).
So there are two patches and an spkg needed! I have them all and will
attach them shortly.
