The 'SWIG' package is now available via setup.exe.
As per the SWIG web page (http://www.swig.org):
SWIG (Simplified Wrapper Interface Generator) is a software development
tool that connects programs written in C, C++, and Objective-C with a
variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is primarily used with
common scripting languages such as Perl, Python, Tcl/Tk, Ruby, Guile and
MzScheme, however the list of supported languages also includes non-
scripting languages such as Java and Eiffel. SWIG is most commonly used
to create high-level interpreted programming environments and as a tool
for building user interfaces. SWIG may be freely used, distributed, and
modified for commercial and noncommercial use.
swig-1.3.11-1 is the first Cygwin release of SWIG.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link
on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to
your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick
up 'automake-devel' from the 'Devel' category.
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need
to find a mirror which has this update.
In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
is a reliable high bandwidth connection.
In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is already
updated.
In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date.
If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package
you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another
mirror.
