Ok, I had a look at the source (though the tarball that I looked at seemed
somewhat broken in the build system).
This swig binding seems to be just one module - rather than a set of
interacting modules. It is the support for multiple interacting modules
which is in turmoil, so I'm hoping ming will work fine with more recent
swig.
Do you have a cygwin package of ming that I could test a proposed new cygwin
swig package against?
