Changes to port:
* Abstract ${BUILDDIR} for files/Makefile
* Remove MAKE_JOBS_SAFE (depreciated)
* Use "USE_GCC=yes+" as recommended by portlint
Highlights:
* Bugfixes to the ARM JIT backend, so that ARM is now an officially
supported processor architecture
* Stacklet support on ARM
* Interpreter improvements
* Various numpy improvements
* Bugfixes to cffi and ctypes
* Bugfixes to the stacklet support
* Improved logging performance
* Faster sets for objects
Port ChangeLog:
* Sqlite3 added as a dependency
* DIST_SUBDIR no longer used as upstream now releases with a proper tarball
* Added ability to translate with pypy running in restricted memory mode
( faster than python2.7 and uses less memory!)
* Added support for pypy modules that use cffi (_sqlite3 and _curses)

The internals of the port have been substantially reworked:
* All predefined instances can be selected via options [1]
* Optionally use options, if user does not overwrite instance list
* Make translation with pypy an option, if it is available.
* Make memory checking more refined [2]
* Add a Wiki page details lang/pypy
* Fix the test target
* Refactor build target (easier to review, edit)
* Rename patches to prevent churn
[1] Although two are broken upstream and one possibly discontinued
[2] My memory limits appear to be too conservative. Set PYPY_IGNORE_MEM for now
