I'm filing this against the ironpython source package, as this sync will
supersede it.

Please sync dlr-languages from Debian NEW. This is the new source
package for the CLI Dynamic Language Runtime and the two official
dynamic languages: IronPython and IronRuby. In Debian it has taken over
the ironpython binary package with the consent of Matthias Klose, the
previous ironpython maintainer.

The benefits of this sync are:
*) A much newer IronPython, supporting Python 2.6
*) The new IronPython is now officially supported upstream by Microsoft
*) We get IronRuby

IronPython has no rdepends, so the risks within the archive are minimal.
As this updates IronPython from 1.1.3 which wasn't even CPython
2.5-compatible to 2.6 it's possible this will break some scripts for
users of IronPython, however.

Build, install & basic runtime logs attached.
