Well, the commands are all issued by OpenBSD's ports system.
There might be some way of getting it to display the commands
it's running, but either way I don't expect this would help
us much. It seems to be a deeper problem in swig -- e.g. earlier
versions than 1.3.36 also results in regression test failures
in the bindings, even when regenerating everything.
See Brad's post: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=122157221716865&w=2

There are bugs in our ac-macros that make the configure script
as shipped fail on OpenBSD.

I have patches to fix these, both of which are included in the port
Brad Walker posted to the OpenBSD-ports list.
Here's the first patch. I intend to commit this, but I'm not sure
what would happen on *nix platforms lacking libintl.
(I'm not putting [PATCH] in the subject because I will
track these myself. Daniel, it's OK if you look away :)
[[[
Fix detection of native language support (NLS) on OpenBSD.
* configure.ac: -lintl may require symbols from libiconv.
Pass -liconv as OTHER-LIBRARIES argument to AC_SEARCH_LIBS.
Also invoke AC_CHECK_LIB on iconv to make sure that -liconv
is included in LD_FLAGS.

Here's the second patch. Not sure about committing this one yet,
as it would probably break things for paths containing spaces. :(

There are still more bugs in our Makefiles, which render them
incompatible with BSD make. Currently, only GNU make can be used
to build the bindings. I will look into those, too, some day.
