[gdal-dev] Remove Old Generation Python bindings for 1.7 release

[Jan Hartmann]

I'm not a developer, but I have had the same problems in my builds (I 
must compile everything on a Linux-cluster  as non-root in non-standard 
locations, with up-to-date versions of Python, that kind of thing).

Removing the old bindings would remove one further source of headaches, 
for me at least.
