New description:

 Remove the following block from the PPL spkg:
 {{{
 # Dependencies check
 MPIR_VERSION=`cd $SAGE_ROOT/spkg/; ./standard/newest_version mpir`
 if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
     echo "Failed to find mpir.  Please install the mpir spkg"
     exit 1
 fi
 }}}

 Although suggested by the developer manual, it doesn't do what is intented
 (it only checks that the mpir spkg exists, not that it has been
 installed).  It's also not needed, since it's a standard package depending
 on a standard package.

 While I was changing the package anyway: use `patch` for patching.
