David Naylor eeb1443b97 lang/pypy: update to 2.6.1
Changes:
 - Add external cffi ports (a la python):
   - databases/pypy-gdbm
   - databases/pypy-sqlite3
   - x11-toolkits/pypy-tkinter
 - Add bsd.pypy.mk for consistency between pypy ports.
 - Add bsd.pypy.cffi.mk for consistency with external cffi ports.
 - Switch back to using $PREFIX/pypy-X.Y (the '-' separator is required to
   differentiate between lang/pypy and lang/pypy3)
 - Remove all patches (upstreamed, see announcement below)

ChangeLog:
 - Bug Fixes
   - Revive non-SSE2 support
   - Fixes for detaching _io.Buffer*
   - Clear up contention in the garbage collector between trace-me-later and
     pinning
   - Issues reported with our previous release were resolved after reports from
     users on our issue tracker at https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues or on
     IRC at #pypy.
 - New features:
   - cffi was updated to version 1.3
   - The python stdlib was updated to 2.7.10 from 2.7.9
   - vmprof now supports multiple threads
   - The translation process builds cffi import libraries for some stdlib
     packages, which should prevent confusion when package.py is not used
   - better support for gdb debugging
   - FreeBSD should be able to translate PyPy "out of the box" with no patches
 - Numpy:
   - Better support for record dtypes, including the align keyword
   - Implement casting and create output arrays accordingly (still missing some
     corner cases)
   - Support creation of unicode ndarrays
   - Better support ndarray.flags
   - Support axis argument in more functions
   - Refactor array indexing to support ellipses
   - Allow the docstrings of built-in numpy objects to be set at run-time
   - Support the buffered nditer creation keyword
 - Performance improvements:
   - Delay recursive calls to make them non-recursive
   - Skip loop unrolling if it compiles too much code
   - Tweak the heapcache
   - Add a list strategy for lists that store both floats and 32-bit integers.
     The latter are encoded as nonstandard NaNs. Benchmarks show that the speed
     of such lists is now very close to the speed of purely-int or purely-float
     lists.
   - Simplify implementation of ffi.gc() to avoid most weakrefs
   - Massively improve the performance of map() with more than one sequence
    argument

=====================================================================
Note that some standard Python modules are provided as separate ports
as they require additional dependencies. They are available as:
gdbm databases/pypy-gdbm
sqlite3 databases/pypy-sqlite3
tkinter x11-toolkits/pypy-tkinter
Note that PyPy does not implement the following module that would
have been provided as a separate port:
bsddb databases/pypy-bsddb
