 Looks like the functions dealing with this have changed, and that
 "next_posts_link_attributes" and "previous_posts_link_attributes" are now
 gone.

 +1 on the first patch.

 When using "next_post_link"/"previous_post_link" plugin authors should be
 able to see what is in the rel="" attribute. The first patch should be all
 that is needed for it to work since no one should be adding in rel=""
 before the new filters are run.

 In the codex we should show how to intelligently add rel="" attributes, or
 others using the new filters.
