If SWIG isn't defined, then we shouldn't try to invoke it. Since somebody
might want to do:

$ make swig-py-ext SWIG=/usr/local/bin/swig

We probably want a runtime test in the make rule. Something like:

swig-py-ext:
        if test -n "$(SWIG)"; then \
        (cd $(SWIG_SRC_DIR)/python; \
        ...
        else \
          echo "SWIG variable is not defined; this rule is unavailable." \
        fi
