Normally, swig should never be re-run when you build from a released
tarball.  The generated code (C) just needs compiling.

The issue is here that you must have a version of swig (V1) that's older
than supported.  You can build a new swig and 'make clean' and retry but I'd
recommend starting from a clean tarball again, after installing a new swig.

SWIG v2 also seems to work but it might give some warnings.

I've got it installed from php5-librdf and it doesn't appear for me.  I'm
not sure why.

Here's a better test using the test.php from the package:

$ php /usr/share/doc/php5-librdf/examples/test.php
