Yes. I agree with all you say above. My point is that future versions of swig will *NOT* install a swig runtime library. Instead,
swig users will be expected to run a swig command generating a .c file which they compile and link into a library of their own,
which provides the swig runtime features. In our case, it seems to make the most sense to integrate this into the existing
libsvn_swig_py.

Max.
