to remind from an earlier thread:

building relbr6.4 swig/python/ from Debian/Etch (swig version 1.3.29-2.1)
fails with:

[...]
utils_wrap.c: In function 'pyseq_to_ptr':
utils_wrap.c:2495: error: 'Py_ssize_t' undeclared (first use in this function)
utils_wrap.c:2495: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
utils_wrap.c:2495: error: for each function it appears in.)
utils_wrap.c:2495: error: expected ';' before 'len'
utils_wrap.c:2522: error: 'len' undeclared (first use in this function)
utils_wrap.c: In function 'pyobj_to_ptr':
utils_wrap.c:2570: error: 'Py_ssize_t' undeclared (first use in this function)
[...]


up until a couple of 6.4 RCs ago it built ok.
