Does the subversion/bindings/swig/libsvn_swig_py-1.la library not exist? You
can run "make swig-py-lib" to manually build it.

I'm not having any problems here with r7444, so I'd recommend that you try a
clean build. In order to diagnose the problem you'd have to see how libtool
is trying to link the libraries. Getting rid of the --silent parameter (by
changing the LTFLAGS definition in the makefile) will cause this information
to be outputted.
