Oh, and to add further confusion, I see *this* STATUS item:
* r18924, r17931, r18928, r18951, r18953
Support SWIG 1.3.28.
Justification:
The latest stable SWIG version is 1.3.28. To be used extensively,
the Ruby bindings should support SWIG 1.3.28.
Votes:
+1: kou
Which seems to be less about making Subversion claim support for 1.3.28, and
more about making the Ruby bindings make use of 1.3.28's features, or somesuch.
Sheesh.
