I don't know where the problem really is but I reverted to Swig 1.3.19
and now it works fine :-).

Here is make test output:

I don't have full control over swig installation. In case it didn't work
I should have given a try...

Here's mine, quite similar to yours indeed:

Client.pm Makefile.client Makefile.wc _Delta.bs blibdirs modules svn_delta.c svn_repos.c
