It would be nice to add mpdecimal as a package. If accepted, Python
can be built --with-system-libmpdec rather than with the vendored
libmpdec copy, which will increasingly lag behind upstream.


Since the 2.5.1 release, NetBSD is a tier-1 platform for mpdecimal:

I could not find a way to attach an archive with send-pr, so here
is the pkg archive:
