New Port Request: Primesieve from https://github.com/kimwalisch/primesieve

[Kenneth Wolcott]

Well, it looks like it is the Primesieve library after all :-)

Thanks!

But I think I will not be able to install the Primesieve bindings
outside of MacPorts because I don't think it will know to look in
/opt/local and I don't know how to tell it to look there.

I'll look again at the bindings...

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
