Scilab scientific software |

Hi guix!
I took a job where I have to use the scientific software suite Scilab in
an old version (5.4.1). I'll probably update it during this job.
I managed to package this version in the non-graphical version of Scilab
5.5.X versions this weekend.
It needs some old software libraries (metis@4, suitesparse@3), which
releases are not even in guix's history, and some compilation errors
fixes.
I go ahead and propose these patches in the next patches. I may continue
to work to propose updates up to the latest versions, but they need some
more work.

Best regards,
Nicolas Graves

Applied all three patches with the license change below: I checked
‘COPYING’ and scanned a bunch of files, and it’s consistently
CeCILL v2.1.
Thanks!
