Unfortunately I'm not a swig ace, but this sounds plausible.  There is
at least one other known problem with swig 1.3.28 and subversion
(exposed in the ruby bindings testsuite):

  http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2006-03/0545.shtml

If swig 1.3.28 turns out not to be good enough for subversion, the
other option is to tweak debian/rules to use the swig files from the
upstream tarball, which are generated from swig 1.3.25 or so.  I don't
realy want to do that, though, because it feels like shipping a
non-self-hosting distribution.

Thanks for the report,
Peter
