 Newmat is capable of using c++ namespaces. This needs to be enabled during
 build, otherwise one gets linker errors if one uses the namespace in user
 code.

 Namespaces is a good thing, and should in my opinion be enabled by default
 for these kind of packages. I understand if turning it on breaks other
 peoples build, but in that case one may use a variant.

 I suggest that the use of namespace is turned on, and if this is not
 possible because of breaking other applications, adding a variant.

 I made the change locally with the "port edit" command, appending the
 lines
 configure.cxxflags-append -Duse_namespace
 to the portfile.
