What versions of SWIG should work with 1.5?

For another perspective the current step 1 in
subversion/bindings/swig/INSTALL says:
Step 1: Install a suitable version of SWIG (which is
currently swig version 1.3.24 - 1.3.31).
So this would have to be if we decide to change the minimum version.

For some perspective, I dug up some info:
RHEL 2 supported until 2009 ships swig 1.1
RHEL 3 supported until 2010 ships swig 1.1
RHEL 4 supported until 2012 ships swig 1.3.21
RHEL 5 supported until 2014 ships swig 1.3.29

Since we ship the swig files in the releases[1], we can be quite
liberal with this dependency and require whatever is best for
us. People building svn from the repository can install it.
[1] Well, we should, but Joe says they're not in the zip file.
We need to fix that before release.

SWIG 1.3.29 was released on Mar-21-2006, almost 2 years ago. I suspect
that most people who are building using swig (not those who use our
pre-generated files) have at least 1.3.29. I'm fine with removing
support for swig <1.3.29, but I'm not a bindings maintainer, and not
that qualified to make that decision.
What do others think about requiring swig >1.3.29?

I guess I wasn't looking for a "frozen" version, but wondering how
much effort I should put into making the Ruby bindings tests pass for
SWIG versions < 1.3.29?

alpha1 was rolled with 1.3.33, but that apparently had problems. I'm
planning on using 1.3.31 for alpha2, and to continue using it until
bindings maintainers can confirm that 1.3.33 works correctly. I don't
think we should consider the swig version "frozen" until we reach RC stage.
