This appears to be SWIG bug 1481958.

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1481958&group_id=1645&atid=101645

I'd be grateful if people could try the following:

   svn checkout
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/perl-bindings-improvements

   cd perl-bindings-improvements
   ./autogen.sh
   ./configure \
     --enable-maintainer-mode \
     --enable-debug \
     --without-neon \
     --without-berkeley-db
   gmake MAKE=gmake
   gmake MAKE=gmae swig-pl

(the MAKE=gmake bit is necessary on platforms where GNU make is not
"make", if that's not the case on your platform then just "make; make
swig-pl" should suffice).

Then

   cd subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native
   perl Makefile.PL
   make
   perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib t/client/list.t

I expect that on 32 bit platforms that test will fail, and on 64 bit
platforms it will succeed. I've only got a 64 bit platform available at
the moment, and I want to make sure the problem is definitely there on
32 bit platforms before I work on a fix.

Many thanks,

N
