Yes; I am using SWIG 1.3.21 (but my makefiles are from the days of SWIG 1.3.5). But you are right. Since SWIG 1.3.14, -shadow is default. See [1] below.
It handles include directories just fine for me and it creates .py files by default (without -shadow)
Do you have headers that are included via %include in the .i file (note %include instead of #include)? Standard #includes are just emitted to the wrapper code; the C compiler gets the right arguments and things just work (tm). The %includes are read by swig itself - swig takes the standard -I<foo> arguments, but they are not currently passed. (I need this to %include header files with type definitions that are later used by %typemaps or %extends.)
Sounds like a pragmatic solution to me.
It sounds like you are having many more issues though...
Just extra arguments. I also find -modern quite important, but this could/should be handled by extra_swig_args. See [2]. - Lars From SWIG-1.3.21/CHANGES: [1] 07/23/2002: beazley *** IMPORTANT CHANGES TO THE PYTHON MODULE *** (1) The Python module now enables shadow/proxy classes by default. This means that two files are always created by SWIG. For instance, if you have this: // file: foo.i %module foo ...

Added a -modern command-line flag that will cause SWIG to omit the cruft in the proxy modules that allows it to work with versions of Python prior to 2.2. The result is a simpler, cleaner and faster python proxy module, but one that requires Python 2.2 or greater.
