--------------------
Fixed bugs
o There was several memory leaks due to bad management of Python
refcounts.
o There was wrong synchronization of the thread running the R event
loop and the calls to the R interpreter.
o There was a bug with signal handling which caused segfault when
'Ctrl-C' were pressed.
o The R event loop shouldn't be run in non-interactive sessions.
o The i/o Python callbacks were wrong synchronized with the R event
loop thread.
New features
o Added a rpy_version symbol.
Inspired by FreeBSD "ports".
Fix the PLISTs accordingly.
Also, while at it, remove now obsolete compileall.py calls in post-install
targets and insure that extension.mk is in included before builinlinks of
other Python modules.
Discussed with/ok'ed by drochner@.

RPy is a very simple, yet robust, Python interface to the R
Programming Language. It can manage all kinds of R objects and can
execute arbitrary R functions (including the graphic functions).
All the errors from the R language are converted to Python exceptions.
Any modules that later were installed on the R system, can easily
be used from within Python, without introducing any changes.
