I guess that you got the tarball from Github this time and from SourceForge last time. The Github release process creates the tarball from the repository automatically--you can actually get a tarball for any commit from Github--while the SourceForge tarballs are generated from a repository using `make dist`, which runs swig to generate the bindings so that it needs only compilation. The easiest solution is to download the tarball from SourcForge.
