Problem here is IronPython 2.6.1 shipped with an older version of
Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight.dll, which does not support the .events
method ... it supports accessing events directly off of the HTML element
(document.foo.onclick += click_foo). Given that change, we didn't update the
gestalt.iron*.net binaries for 2.6.1, but it will be updated for 2.6.2. In
the meantime, I'll put a build 20100706 up there shortly.
