Indeed. That's exactly the problem.

Fortunately, it's quite easy to build a replacement libswigpy to extend the
compatibility of swig 1.3.22 to apps which haven't caught up to the cutting
edge of swig development yet.

Run this in a temporary directory so you can easily clear up the temporary
files it leaves behind.

You will probably need to arrange to run the last line as root.

You may need to change the PREFIX to wherever you installed swig.

#!/bin/sh
set -ex
PREFIX=/usr
LIBTOOL=libtool
CFLAGS="`python -c 'from distutils import sysconfig
print \"%s -I%s\" % tuple(sysconfig.get_config_vars(\"CFLAGS\",
 \"INCLUDEPY\"))'`"
LIBS="`python -c 'from distutils import sysconfig; import os
print apply(os.path.join, sysconfig.get_config_vars(\"LIBPL\",
\"LDLIBRARY\"))
'`"
swig -runtime -python swigrun.i
$LIBTOOL --mode=compile gcc -O3 -Wall swigrun_wrap.c -o swigpy.o -c $CFLAGS
$LIBTOOL --mode=link gcc -no-undefined -rpath $PREFIX/lib -o libswigpy.la \
swigpy.lo $LIBS
$LIBTOOL --mode=install cp libswigpy.la $PREFIX/lib

Max.
