The bonobo-slay-branch has now been merged into HEAD. The new code
depends on Gtk+ 2.5.x and the latest cvs version of eel. 

The new code has all the features it had before, it looks and works
basically identically. It seems to work well, but its likely that there
are some new bugs.

I'd appreciate if people tried it out and reported any regressions since
before the merge. If you find any obvious regressions, please let us
know. (And if you file a bug about such a regression, please also send a
mail to nautilus-list. Its easy to miss it in the bugzilla spam, and I'd
like to fix the regressions as soon as possible.)
