SWIG is not required for building of SWIG-based bindings from release tarballs, which contain some SWIG-generated files. `configure` prints a warning, when a version of SWIG newer than hardcoded maximal version is detected. The maximal version very often becomes outdated (e.g. currently 2.0.4 is the newest available version) and for the long time there hasn't been any problem caused by new version of SWIG itself. I suggest to remove check for maximal version of SWIG. (`configure` from 1.6.x branch prints a warning when SWIG >=1.3.37 is detected.)
