Unable to load plugin 'svn'

[Ben J Nathanson]

I'm having difficulty getting bzr to work with the bzr-svn plugin. 

> bzr plugins
Unable to load plugin 'svn' from 
'/gsa/watgsa/home/b/j/bjn/.bazaar/plugins'

I attempted to follow the instructions in 
http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrForeignBranches/Subversion.

In particular, I tried to get appropriate versions of the software.

> bzr --version
Bazaar (bzr) 0.17.0dev0

(I also tried the released 0.16 version).

I wasn't sure if the SWIG comments on the web page applied only to 
Subversion 1.4.3 or to 1.5 also, but I got an appropriate version and 
built it:
> swig -version  
SWIG Version 1.3.27

> python --version
Python 2.5.1

> svn --version
svn, version 1.5.0 (dev build)

svn 'make check' runs clean.

And I got bzr-svn by running
bzr branch http://people.samba.org/bzr/jelmer/bzr-svn/bzr.dev/ svn

I tried installing both systemwide and from my plugins directory.

The only part of this process that raises my suspicions is that the SWIG 
'make check' doesn't run the Python tests cleanly. I get many messages 
about

invalid conversion from `const char*' to `char*'

and

warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type

But subversion 'make check-swig-py' runs OK:

Ran 79 tests in 25.890s
OK

I apologize if I missed something obvious in the instructions. 

Thanks for your help!
