VERSION:
Minecraft 1.6.4, Forge 9.11.1.965, ComputerCraft 1.63. No other mods loaded.
DESCRIPTION:
Vanilla redstone signals unsupported due to new API changes.
EXPECTED RESULT:
When executing rs.setOutput("left", true) I expect the computer / turtle to emit a redstone signal. This does not happen. Doing the reverse, i.e. sending a redstone signal into a computer or turtle, always results in "off" or false returned from method.
REPRODUCTION STEPS:
Place down a computer, place down a repeater or redstone dust next to it. Start the computer, type: lua - type: rs.setOutput("side", true).
Nothing will ever make vanilla Minecraft support the new CC API, so at least make sure you support vanilla signals outside the API that everyone else is now forced to use. I understand that bundled cables are a lot different and I fully understand and support the usage of the API for bundled cables, but why on earth skip out on normal redstone mechanics?
Downgrading back to CC 1.58 as CC 1.63 is useless.

I honestly don't know what problem you are having.

I would also like to point out

you really need to take a step back and calm down, Redstone support is native to ComputerCraft, the Bundled Cable API has nothing to do with Redstone other than the fact they reside within the same Lua accessible api.

Are you noticing the problem on an MCPC+/Cauldron server? If so, that's the problem. If not, please provide screenshots of the setup and the commands you are using.

I gather at one stage MCPC+ had some bugs which messed with CC's redstone capabilities, but they should long since be fixed. Make sure you've got it up to date.

I doubt it is up to date, but with all the official downloads gone i dont know where I could find an up to date version.
EDIT: We are using mcpc-plus-1.6.4-R2.1-forge965-B251

Oh, that's right, Wolveriness threw his childish little tanty. I'd forgotten, and am somewhat surprised that hasn't been sorted out yet (for better or worse - it seems there's been no progress on the matter at all).
It looks like your best bet is to jump off the sinking ship that is bukkit. I've never relied on it myself - Forge has always been more than enough for me - but I'm still sorry to see it go.

I managed to find the most up to date cauldron version that was out. And I would love to jump off said ship, but w/o an alternative plugin API, or relevant server-side mods, I have to do what I have to do to get the functionality that I need.

Not a computercraft bug, and even if it was, it would have nothing to do with the API as you try to claim. closing
