Technically, it shouldn't matter, since *baton and *old_baton are the
same. In fact, I'm exploiting that fact to avoid having to wrap *all*
the callbacks.

(But I could be wrong here, and Interesting Things could be happening.)

The bit I'm shaky about is how to emulate the behavior of
datasources_open in terms of data_source open. *Something* is not
quite right since it continues to segfault.
