The SCons input language is too free-form to be easily shoehorned

Well, unlike SCons we're actually building all our ports on top of GYP. We
never actually expanded SCons to all platforms or addressed the problems we
had with it.

To add to this, GYP also only generates files for _your_ platform on
checkout. Even to the degree that on Windows, it would generate VS2008
projects if you had it installed, and VS2005 otherwise. To be precise,
the selection is not automatic (you need an env variable) to avoid
dual-VS installs
Having used both Chromium's .gyp solution and WebKit's

anyone interested in doing this for their own port. Especially since the
