Comment (by leavengood):
A user in IRC found this bug as well, but in his case deleting the file
did not seem to actually free the disk space. Either way the system should
remove or at least truncate to 0 the swap file when virtual memory is
disabled.
I'll attempt to make the fix which does one or the other. It will be my
first kernel change ;)
