Hello ports,

Attached is a new port for gnu bc:

pkg/DESCR:
bc is an arbitrary precision numeric processing language. Syntax is similar to
C, but differs in many substantial areas. It supports interactive execution of
statements. bc is a utility included in the POSIX P1003.2/D11 draft standard.

HOMEPAGE: https://www.gnu.org/software/bc/

I added --program-prefix="g" in CONFIGURE_ARGS  to prevent conflicts with
/usr/bin/bc and /usr/bin/gc. I tested the port on i386.

OK?

Thanks for the submission! I'm happy to have this in ports. I've made some 
tweaks to put this more in line with what we do with ports of other GNU 
versions of utilities (like gmake, gtar, gdiff, etc.): change the port 
directory and PKGNAME gbc and tweak the COMMENT and DESCR a little.

I also added --with-libedit to CONFIGURE_ARGS, because the line editing is nice 
to have I think (and /usr/bin/bc has it).

Tarball with these tweaks attached.
