Maybe we can add support for Python3 too.  I know that moving off of Python
2 is a non-starter because of legacy code, but if it's ever going to happen
in the future, then starting earlier is better than starting later, and
this would be a good starting point.

For what it's worth, the python-based swig generation script has support
for other languages.  There's a top level script which recurses into each
language-specific subdirectory and runs a script in that directory to shell
out to swig for the final creation.  So that part should be extensible.
