Andi,

Thanks for your help. After switching to 1.3.24, the SWIG processing
finished successfully. There was another hick-up in the final step for
linking _PyLucene.so. On FreeBSD, I had to add -liconv and -lz after
-lgcj to get it to link properly.  I tested my application after the
successful compilation, and everything seems to be in order.

Thanks again,
Dudley
