It's probably safe to say that this won't be available on iGoogle for
the immediate future.  I'm not even entirely sure that the pubsub
functionality as it currently works will be made available in wave,
since they have a different model for this kind of thing.

How were you planning on using pubsub?  To me, passing messages
between two gadgets on the same iGoogle page is a little less
desirable now that the canvas view is available (gadgets were using
pubsub mostly to get around a constrained UI), but maybe I'm missing
something.  Using a server model lets you do some interesting things
not possible with pubsub, such as passing messages between different
iGoogle users, etc.
