Hi Arrigo

You can. Peter's patches didn't fully convert the logic from
main/solenv/gbuild/platform/linux.mk into SCons, they only did the minimum
to catch up with FreeBSD.

I haven't developed on that branch in some time, and can't help right now.

There's a lot we could do in a SCons build though, with its ability to run
arbitrary Python code during the build: replace all the Perl files in
main/solenv/bin, replace calls to all the little command line tools like
awk/sed/zip, build without Cygwin some day, etc.
