I noticed this too using swig 1.3.14. The swig interface file ignores
this function anyway.

I didn't get this far because I'm having other problems with the swig
stuff.

Changing the "%module _fs" to "%module fs" and similar for the others
fixed that for me, but then I had trouble with the util module.
All modules compile fine. Some modules contain a function called
t_output_helper. The util module uses this function, but doesn't seem
to include it. (I get unknown symbol type errors, and nm tells me
"U t_output_helper".) Not being at all familiar with swig or writing
Python modules in C, I have not yet managed to get past this point.
