I'll write my notes here. For details, you may want to talk to sgk.

1. You may want to provide a list of allowed values for SYSTEM_LIBS.

2. It should be specified that -j num means num parallel build jobs, and not
a magical "make-my-build-faster" button. It would be also nice to add that
on Linux only one link job will run at a time (to prevent excessive memory
usage when linking for example test_shell and test_shell_tests).

3. --verbose will just print the commands being executed instead of
shortened info like "Compiling x.cc".

4. "During the compilation of SCons use this command" - can you reword this
part? I don't understand it (did you mean that SCons uses command like this?
That makes sense).

Thanks for writing this page. I think it would be good to also add
information how to recognize on which platform we build, the common idiom
used for to-be-ported files, and how to build a specific target (for
example, only unit_tests, or only libbrowser; these builds are usually
faster).
