Yes, I just copied them. They should be included (%include) instead. I'll
try to fix this.

What the "dolfinmodules" SWIG interface does is import (not include) the
entire DOLFIN interface and then only include the interface for the
modules. This means that the modules are aware of the DOLFIN data types,
but no code is generated for them.

As far as I can see, this requires the inclusion of the pre and post
extensions/modifications to the interface.
