- The ``render_view`` method of ``pyramid.renderers.RendererHelper`` passed

  an incorrect value into the renderer for ``renderer_info``.  It now passes
  an instance of ``RendererHelper`` instead of a dictionary, which is
  consistent with other usages.  See
  https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues#issue/106

Closes #106
