As I have said, scons' development is much better now.

I see that this has been hurting scons' reputation a lot. :-( Anyway,
scons has greate potential. Otherwise, they wouldn't have won three
google summer coding awards in two years.

Anyway, in contrast to what Peter and Andre have done to make lyx
compile faster, with all the pch and combine-files tricks, I have
tried to make scons easier to understand and use, by providing uniform
and reliable build across all supported platforms.

If cmake can achieve all I need, I may stop working on scons. Right
now, this is not the case.
