porting PyECLib

Hi,

Newer versions of the openstack swift require PyECLib:
https://bitbucket.org/kmgreen2/pyeclib

So preparing an update for databases/py-swift I have created PyECLib
port:

https://people.freebsd.org/~trociny/patches/py-PyECLib.ports.1.diff

I am not sure about some things though:

1) Portname: currently PyECLib, but may be it should be pyeclib or
just eclib?

2) The package includes several C libraries: gf-complete,
liberasurecode, jerasure, which are their own projects, so could be
built as separate packages. Do you think it worth splitting it to
several packages, providing the libraries as dependencies to PyECLib?
I suppose it could be splitted later if other users for the libs are
found.

3) May be you see other things I do wrong here?
