I ran test rebuild of subversion against future SWIG in FEDORA
rawhide
and it failed.
I reported it to SWIG upstream:
https://github.com/swig/swig/issues/3260
They did some investigation and proposed 3 possible solution.
https://github.com/swig/swig/issues/3260#issuecomment-3272521479
I tested options 2 and 3. Both of them solve the build issue.
This was reported on openSUSE as well:
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1252962
Proposing the below...
