Darn.  That's the problem with my use of CVS -- I forgot to change
Makefile.PL to Makefile.PL.in in the MANIFEST file and so it wasn't
included in the swish-daily tarball.

Your quick fix is to go to http://swish-e.org and down at the bottom is a
link to CVS.  There (on the sourceforge site) you can click Browse CVS and
then drill down to the perl directory and simply download Makefile.PL.in
to your swish-e perl directory.  Then rerun configure.

And the next thing configure was going to do after building the
Makefile.PL (from the missing Makefile.PL.in) was to create the acconfig.h
file -- but due to the error that didn't happen.

That should get you working.
