I have recently written a binding for http://nacl.cr.yp.to/ for Pharo
and Squeak: http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/tonyg/Crypto-Nacl/main

Nacl relies on ECC for many of its operations. A good overview is
http://cr.yp.to/highspeed/coolnacl-20120725.pdf.

My binding uses FFI. You'll need a copy of libsodium.{so,dylib,dll}. I
haven't yet written up instructions, sorry, but there are tests in there
that will tell you when you get the .so in the right spot.
