My build is still running (and won't be a complete build until I fix
a few more Python ports for EXT_SUFFIX problems), and i386 misses
some things so kmos' build will give useful results too. The only
failure that looks like swig is games/fifengine; this will probably
fix it (untested):
https://github.com/fifengine/fifengine/commit/d14f232f4cd9a00b05d6872957070e8c020f515d.patch
Looking at how things are going with the build I don't think we will
require the swig update specifically for 3.8.7 but it would make sense
to do it all close together I think.

Yes we can do that.

heh.
