new: lang/gb



new port up for people to look at and test. this one is gnome basic, the
visual basic compatable language. kinda scary, but it's come in handy for
me recently.

from pkg/DESCR:

It is an embryonic attempt to provide VB compatible functionality for the
GNOME project, particularly with respect to office (VBA)  compatibility.
It is part of the GNOME desktop environment: a project to create a free,
user friendly desktop environment.

As for Macro virii, a total non-issue, gb has been designed from the
ground up to be as secure as possible, currently the worst DoS is RAM
consumption.



i have attempted to make the BUILD_DEPENDS as correct as possible, but the
number of things and their relative interdependencies was hard to reliably
prune down from the automated check. if someone could verify that it's
correct, i would appreciate that.

gb passes all of its supplied tests.

please have a look. comments and such requested:
