It's been updated to 6.2 almost a year ago, so Python 3.3 should have that.
I don't think 6.3 support will be added before Python 3.4, assuming it's
final by then. You should open a ticket so that it won't be forgotten
before the release.

That being said, the module is (mostly) generated, so you might be able to
fix it up yourself if you need it sooner in a local installation.
