Hi,

I have an additional recommendation for lang/gambc: 

I think that the port name should be changed to lang/gambit-c or lang/gambit_c.  This would be easier for people familiar with the compiler to find, (I actually didn't know the port existed for a while because of the abbreviated name) and the only changes needed would be to change PORTNAME to gambit-c and change the folder name to gambit-c. (I added DISTNAME to deal with this change)

I hope the current maintainer is interested in this idea.

Regards,
Tim
