Heads up for the above; should be in CHANGES, probably. Several people
have been trying to get our Python bindings to work with Swig 3.0.x,
without success. Even though the Perl and Ruby bindings work at this
point with 3.0.5 (at least, they compile and the tests pass), I think
it's safer to tell people to use Swig 2.x for the time being, until the
issues with 3.x are resolved.
