Yes, the sw_prefix warning is just a grep for /sw/, and it does pick up 
several false positives (like ngspice, vim, and texlive).

I added the rule because I saw at least one package (podofo9) that had a 
hardcoded path search in /sw (it found lua in my normal /sw install vs 
searching in its own prefix) and user-ja installed *some* of its files 
into /sw rather than using the given %p. These were the two most 
egregious examples, though I think some of the other packages caught by 
the filter also used compiler flags with /sw/ in them (vs using %p).
