Missing fixes, I think. I'd be inclined to just pull the fix from trunk's
CHANGES, update the 1.4.4 STATUS to include the missing parts of this fix,
and release 1.4.3 as-is. Perhaps someone (CL?) could clarify exactly
why this fix was important to backport in the first place (since it's
essentailly adding new functionality to the bindings, I assume there's a
reason it can't/shouldn't wait for 1.5.0).
