Hi!

The file src/pydolfin/dolfin_headers.h (generated by
src/pydolfin/generate.py)  controls which headers are included in the
Python interface, so your headers are probably missing from there.

Note that much of the functionality of PyDOLFIN related to PDE solvers has
been removed, so it might not be a straightforward port of your old code
to 0.7. Some possible options for how to proceed are:

1. Write solvers using C++ only for now.
2. Work on enabling the missing PyDOLFIN functionality.
3. Use an older version of DOLFIN which still has the needed functionality.
