Well, maybe perl 5.6.1 doesn't have that typemap.

  moseley@bumby:~$ fgrep 'const char *' 
  /usr/share/perl/5.8.2/ExtUtils/typemap
  const char *            T_PV

See if your installed typemap has that.  It's under the header of "# 
basic C types".  If not, try adding that line to the typemap in your 
SWISH::API build directory like so:

  SW_FUZZYWORD O_OBJECT
  const char *            T_PV

Post back to the list what you find out.
