in reply to Amanda goes to Perl

I see amanda puts its perl modules in $prefix/lib/amanda/perl, and builds them with SWIG. What if you want to use them with different (binary-incompatible) versions of perl? Or perhaps there is no way to build for a perl version other than whatever SWIG is set to use? I remember trying to build some SVN thing or other once for a different version of perl than the system perl, and failing miserably...perhaps just because I know almost nothing about SWIG. If anyone else knows whether and how it is possible to do, I'd appreciate hearing about it.
