It's similar to the SWIFT_HOME issue. However:
- overriding the sites file requires an explicit argument on the command
line, so it's hard to think that the user is not aware of that
- setting SWIFT_HOME and leaving it there does not require explicit user
action
In light of the two points above, I think that a warning message makes
more sense in the SWIFT_HOME case than in the sites file case.
