Generally we try not to add things to pkgsrc proper that have serious
issues.  cwrappers  has been the norm for a long time, and
USE_CWRAPPERS=no is a user control, not a per-package control, so
importing seems less than ideal.

But as maya says, put it in wip, where it's totally ok to be not 100%
right, and that makes it far easier for someone else to fix it (or fix a
bug in cwrappers, if it should turn out to be that).
