It does, but Compile already supplies --command, so it probably got overridden.

Not the best name, true... :-\

No, build_script is used both for build and install.

Oh, wait a second. I just realized I got things mixed up here.
build_script, etc., are for the "recipe_type=python" type, not for
"recipe_type=scons". From the looks of your recipe's needs (which call
a .py script and pass options to it), you may want to use
"recipe_type=python instead. Unless you need to call scons to build
and install.py to make, in which case it is a weird mix of the two
recipe types... :\ In that case the way you did it is the right one.

Hard to keep in sync with the wiki, sorry (and even with the wiki it
gets outdated from time to time...).
