cannot test SWIG Perl binding

Hi,

I'm tearing my hair out with this one. I've installed swig 1.3.21 with
"./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-perl5=/usr/local/bin/perl" and run

make && make runtime && make install && make install-runtime

I've been following the instructions in subversion/bindings/swig/INSTALL for
subversion 1.0.2. I configured subversion with:

./configure --with-berkeley-db=/usr/berkeleydb/ --with-apxs=/usr/apache/bin/apxs
 --prefix=/usr/subversion --enable-nls=no --enable-swig-bindings=perl
--with-swig=/usr/local/bin/swig

The configure fails with "swig bindings version 1.3.19 or newer needed for swig
support" on the fourth occurrance of this test in configure. This seems due to
$SWIG=/usr/local/bin/swig/bin/swig (I eventually found) and can be avoided by
omitting --with-swig=/usr/local/bin/swig and letting configure find swig - I am
afraid I don't know what is wrong with the configure but this is repeatable for
me.

I've checked:

           - /usr/local/lib/swig1.3/*.i
           - /usr/local/lib/libswig*.so
           - /usr/local/bin/swig

exists and then I did:

make swig-pl-lib (OK)
env APR_CONFIG=/usr/subversion/bin/apr-config perl Makefile.PL (OK)
make all test

This last stage fails initially with:

bash-2.05# make all test

Any ideas what I've done wrong and do next?
