+Fix error handling in python bindings.
+
+  The python bindings in 0.11 failed to detect NULL pointers being
+  returned from libnotmuch functions and thus failed to raise
+  exceptions to indicate the error condition. Any subsequent calls
+  into libnotmuch caused segmentation faults.

LGTM -- although knowing which python 2.x versions works would
be nice to know. At least tests pass using python 2.5 but how
complete are those tests...

I marked patches 2/3 and 3/3 stale as git-am doesn't accept those anymore
on top of 2c6710e3ba22f5af6e5813dad8bee732e6c5d02c.

come on... these are patches for the NEWS file, it's as much work for
me to merge these as for anyone else ;)

Yes.... I just happened to add the 'notmuch::patch' tag without checking
that the patches apply (and those appeared to ready list)... So I did
not have much choice for the time being...
