Comment (by Olly Betts):

 > which for PHP specifically will need some custom typemaps now there's no
 longer a PHP wrapper script generated we can patch

 Implemented in 7445f6c1d5b15b946ca77724895aeadabb125131.

 > In languages where we don't use directors (usually, perhaps always,
 because SWIG doesn't support them yet) I think we can just use ref and
 unref.

 It looks like those languages actually already work OK - at least
 `smoketest.lua` tests setting a `Stopper` on a `TermGenerator` works after
 the `Stopper` goes out of scope.  I'm not immediately seeing how that
 works, so will test a bit more thoroughly.
