ready?

> The new embedding API has been code reviewed and merged into trunk. It was
in the 2.11 release, I believe. Test coverage for the new API is around ~90%
for critical functions. Documentation is progressing, albeit slowly.

> The new API is already being used by at least one external project,
ParrotSharp (my embedding of Parrot into C#). Other projects have expressed
interest in migrating to it as well. I suspect several projects will migrate
to the new API after the 3.0 release.
