When we abandoned the old build system a while ago we looked at using
autoconf and make, cmake or scons. Albert spent some time evaluating
them all and decided scons was the best choice although I have to say
in my opinion they're all weak in a number of ways.

If I remember rightly one of the breaking issues here is that scons
has fairly good support for all the qt tools.
