Hi,

> Add swig/host to build dependencies.

this doesn't looks like a cleanup as commit subject suggests, but rather
contrary :-)

Anyway, IIRC we've added swig as a "soft host" requirement on buildbots after
this mail[2], so perhaps we should revisit that now and make it a hard host
build prereq instead? Something like we do for `mkisofs` in
target/linux/x86/Makefile?

Otherwise it looks like we would need to move swig from packages feed into
main repository and I'm not sure if we really want to do that.
