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?

Max.
