So now you took all the work that was done in order to support both
versions of SWIG on Windows (like we do on Unix) out of the window.
Also, whoever wants to build both 1.0.x and trunk must now have _two_
versions of SWIG installed. All that without discussion on the dev@ list.

There's no reason to drop this compatibility, and I strongly object to
the way it was done (i.e., throwing away all parametrisation of SWIG
options). If generating the SWIG runtime is a problem (which I don't see
why it would be), then let's instead tell people to build the SWIG
runtime libraries themselves -- swigwin provides the necessary .dsp files
Please revert this change until we've discussed it and you convince me
it's necessary at this point.
