Having the bindings hold up 1.0 seems silly to me.  Keeping them in tree
for now doesn't bother me and we can state clearly in any release notes
that the bindings are still subject to change.  0.60 has seemed pretty
stable as far as I can see.  We should move it to a beta 0.90 release
and fix up the little nagging bugs.
