yea, turns out that swig 1.3.28 doesn't work with python 2.5 (even though
those are the default versions for cygwin).  you can get a little farther by
downloading a more recent version of cygwin manually, but basically cygwin
sucks (signals don't work, gdb doesn't really work, etc.) so I think if you
have to work on a windows machine you're far better off getting the free
vmware server (or something equivalent) and putting a minimal ubuntu server
install on it and then using that "remotely" (i.e. log in over ssh/X). The
cygwin X server works OK under XP.
