Given this statement:

No I don't think this is bad scheme. I believe however we need to fill in the 
holes the best we can. Anyone can make non-portable build files in CMake, Ant, 
etc... The issue is can one easily make a build file portable if the tried. I 
believe at this time we have strong API weakness, that make this very hard to 
do. Given that we can make this a lot easier with newer Scons 2 drops with and 
SCons 3 drops, people have a means to make stuff portable before they try to 
make the jump at their own pace. The main issue at this point is that python 2 
support is starting to be dropped, this makes it harder for us to make a better 
Scons as now there seems to be a ticking clock.

I would like to hear what anatoly techtonik thinks.
