I merged scons build support in r31618. I was just about to merge
chrpath too, but it didn't build on my OSX box. When I found out what
chrpath is used for in the build system, I decided to not merge it at all.
If I understand the code that uses it in the gpsd build system
correctly, it seems to be an unnecessary hack that should be patched out
entirely.
