There is an essential point of view that is implicit here:  the parser
is simply a tool for getting unit tests to pass! If we concentrate on
unit tests that demonstrate that swig's type tables are created
correctly, we have a framework for doing intensive testing of the (new
or old) *parser*.

In this framework, we can ask afresh the question, "what is the
simplest parser that could possibly work?"
