 Originally this was because the Weight API was incompatible with available
 SWIG features. From 1.1, the API has changed; however it is still not
 possible to trivially wrap the class for directors.

 Firstly, SWIG warns:

 /Users/jaylett/projects/xapian/trunk/xapian-
 core/include/xapian/weight.h:163: Warning(473): Returning a pointer or
 reference in a director method is not recommended.

 (this is usually promoted to an error.)

 Secondly, compiling the output has errors:

 PyObject*)’:
 modern/xapian_wrap.cc:24352: error: ‘_swig_thread_allow’ was not declared
