I think libforms should just be removed from 2.0.5. It's not used by anything
and was not intended to be released in that form (hey, everyone knows my
view on this by now :-)

The current libforms is completely imcompatible with what's currently in the
tree so we'd have to have another major number bump as soon as I commit
that.

I thought we agreed that it would get bunped *once* per release.
