Print info about the binary package on build failed

The idea is to release a package 'psycopg2-binary' to allow installing
binary, and leave the psycopg2 package to be source only, to avoid
pushing the unreliability of the wheel pacakge by default (see issue #543).

Version number bumped to test with new packages.
