We are in the way of breaking the current modules (ITKCommonA, ITKCommonA,  
ITKBasicFiltersA, ...) in more modules which will group classes in a  
better way. The user will be able to build only the relevent subpart of  
WrapITK for his need. He will be able to load only a consistent subpart,  
etc.
Given the early stage of development, I don't think we will keep the old  
modules content, so we will break your code here, and so I would not  
recommend you to use the submodules :-/
Zach, what do you think of this backward compatibility problem ?

Using a recent version of swig should also help us a lot to decrease  
loading time, but it requires some work we don't have time to do know
