It's still used for the vdigit module. But both vdigit and nviz need
significant re-writes anyhow. My inclination for 7.0 would be to
remove everything related to SWIG, and disable the vdigit and nviz
modules.

If I could figure out how to do the latter without breaking wxGUI as a
whole, I would have done it already.
