No, Makefile.PL only needs to find swish-e so it can build a test
index to use when running "make test".  It just needs to have a
version of swish-e that uses the same libswish-e that SWISH::API links
with.

You would need more than that.  Use the flags as described in the
README to override default locations for the .h and libraries.

I suppose it would be nice to have a swish-config binary that can tell
where the headers and libraries are installed.
