Redland Bindings versions are named as redland versions + 1 digit
so bindings 1.0.0.3 (not released yet) is the 3rd version for redland
1.0.0

So CVS redland-bindings (1.0.0.3) won't work against CVS redland (1.0.1)
but will against released redland 1.0.0.  Or you can just edit the
configure.ac to match if you want to play around - should work now as
redland CVS hasn't drifted too far from 1.0.0.

There should be branches for released/devel redland's but I'm putting
that off at present (maybe till I switch to subversion).  Busy busy.
