Bug#418068: scons: manpage uses incorrect example env = Environment(ENV = os.environ['PATH'])

[Helmut Grohne]

Package: scons
Version: 0.96.93-2
Severity: minor
Tag: patch

The manpage of scons says:

       Or  you  may explicitly propagate the invoking user's complete external
       environment:

              import os
              env = Environment(ENV = os.environ['PATH'])

This is wrong as os.environ['PATH'] will be a str (if existent) and not
a dict. The line should probably look like:

env = Environment(ENV = os.environ)
