Ebuild for current libguestfs.

libguestfs-1.28.5 is the newest in the portage tree.  This won't compile with gcc 5; fixes were introduced in 1.30:

http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-release-notes.1.html#release-notes-for-libguestfs-1.30

The current stable release is 1.36.3.  I'll attach my current ebuild, which is adapted from the jtriley overlay's 1.32.  This is mostly the same as 1.28.5 except for three things:

1 There is currently an upstream bug that its compilation fails if ocaml is not enabled.  My users needed ocaml bindings anyway, so for now I just IUSE=+ocaml.

2 It needs a files/1.36/ subdir, but only needs one file from the jtriley overlay, also attached.

3 Simplified/updated some dependencies.

Please do not open a separate bug for each and every new version out there.

Fair enough.  I cannot edit the title of the other bug to include the gcc5 problem, which is why I resorted to creating a new one.  Can you edit the title of bug 601162 please?  Thanks!
