Name: Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator (SWIG)
Short Name: swig
URL: http://www.swig.org/download.html
Version: 1.3.40
License: MIT
Security Critical: no

Description:
Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator (SWIG) is an interface compiler
that connects programs written in C and C++ with scripting languages such as
Perl, Python, Ruby, and Tcl. It works by taking the declarations found in
C/C++ header files and using them to generate the wrapper code that scripting
languages need to access the underlying C/C++ code.

Local Modifications:
- Removed all non-python bindings from Lib/.
- Edit Lib/python/pyruntime.swg to include Python.h without the _DEBUG macro to
avoid requiring python<ver>_d.lib since we do not intend to debug python. Also
disable a MSVC warning about mixing headers with and without _DEBUG.
