Currently the package for SDCC, a C compiler suite for 8-bit microcontrollers,
builds and installs its own copy of μCsim, a collection of microcontroller
simulators.

This patch series adds a separate package for μCsim and removes the bundled
copy from SDCC.

Note that despite the name, "0.6-pre67" does appear to be the latest stable
version; the last "formal" release, 0.5.3, was made in 2004, and 0.6 has
apparently been in a pre-release state for four years now (see
http://mazsola.iit.uni-miskolc.hu/ucsim/download/unix/).
