That was it.

I tried following the wiki to change to v2:
    svn propset svn:externals "gar 
https://gar.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gar/csw/mgar/gar/v2" .

but that wasn't sufficient.   I also had to replace the softlink:
    rm gar
    ln -s ../../../gar/v2 gar

Perhaps this was just because I didn't commit the propset change yet?

Anyway, now I have a package:

        
~/newpkgs/swig/swig-1.3.39,REV=2009.05.19-SunOS5.8-sparc-UNCOMMITTED.pkg.gz


Just waiting on an OK to assume this maintainership....
