Version 1.3.22 and -ldflags command line option

I recently came across a bug in swig version 1.3.21 and submitted it to 
the SWIG bug tracking system, but it occurred to me that I should try 
the latest version of swig to see if it had already been fixed.

The problem is that my build system depends on running "swig -python 
-ldflags" to determine the swig library name and location.  This worked 
fine in swig 1.3.21, but -ldflags is not a valid command line option in 
1.3.22.  Why was this capability removed?  Why is there no deprecation 
warning?  Is there a workaround so that I can get the same 
functionality?
