Perhaps I missed the discussion, but why wasn't this done as a simple
update of math/jakarta-commons-math?  Apparently there are no other
ports that depend upon the older version -- did a number of users
express an interest in keeping the older version around, so that it
was worthwhile to go to the trouble of maintaining separate ports?
