update is ok.

doing this is ok if you think they're particularly useful.

i normally wouldn't though as they don't seem to be very useful
standalone, and people programming against the API will usually want the
docs as well which aren't included in the tar.

that's wrong here. if setting SEPARATE_BUILD doesn't result in files in
WRKBUILD you shouldn't set it. (it won't for MODPY_PYBUILD things).

in general, careful adding it to other ports too, we see quite a few
issues where upstreams don't fully allow for out-of-tree builds in some
areas - there have been quite a few times I've tried to figure out why
some test or other isn't working and it ended up because someone set
SEPARATE_BUILD - or break things after an update. (it's not terribly
useful anyway except in ports large enough that "make clean=build"
saves a bunch of time).
