Bundle operations

[Daniel Kochmański]

Hi,

Sorry that it's just before the next release. I have some regressions
with fix provided to make test-xach-update-bug pass when it comes to
working with C code (fix randomizes names which must be predetermined
from the C side perspective) so I'm taking that back for now - please
don't make bundles the default. I hope to find a viable solution before
next ECL release.

Current develop head doesn't pass this test.
