rrdtool-1.0 is used by SFlowtool and last time I've tried it worked so I
don't see any reason to drop rrdtool-1.0.50 from the tree. As for
bindings, py-rrdtool have known problems and thus I've decided to drop
it. Probably it's good idea to do the same for ruby bindings as rrdtool
ChangeLog suggests that some problems were fixed there too.

If users need bindings they better use recent rrdtool and bundled
bindings, rrdtool-1.0.x for sflowtool only.
