I'm curious what the size differences are using your approach for the
C/C++ file and the compiled library file (if any).

This approach could be useful to enable people to use my SWIG module
code with older/newer versions of the C++ library then what I used to
wrap it with SWIG.

Also, if the list will be long, perhaps adding a feature to include
the library list inside the interface file would be nice.

Cheers, jas.
