But scons -c doesn't even clean up .pyc files created by the _current_ 
version.  I would at least expect a scons -c that was run _before_ the 
cvs update that changed the scons configuration to leave no problematic 
crap around.

Besides, I would see no problem with scons -c deleting *.pyc, just as I 
would have no particular problem with make clean deleting *.o.  Or at 
least, make distclean deleting *.o.  (Is there a scons equivalent of 
that?)
