I am trying to use SWIG to create a module for calling C from Perl

copying over the generated files.

- Is there a port of SWIG available to run natively on VMS

There appears to be a SWIG kit here:

http://www.vmspython.org/anonymous/jfp/swig1331.zip

- is there any feature available to produce the .OPT file needed to  
create
universal symbols on Alpha and IA64

I think I've heard of things that can do that, possibly bits included  
with gSOAP, WSIT, or axis2.  Sorry to be vague.

- any other gotchas or hints


Never used it, so I don't know, but let us know if you get it working.
