I surely hope so.

Well ... SCons looks amazingly good in tiny examples, but when it comes
to doing anything less than trivial, it's a nightmare. For example, I'm
not thrilled that we have platform-specific Python code in Serf's
SConstruct, and that's not even a very complex build at all. So, whilst
I really hate CMake for its inconsistencies and homegrown horrible macro
language, I like SCons quite a bit less.

All of the above is my "humble" opinion of course.
