Rupert, From your email below I have no idea what the failure was. Can you provide a small SConstruct which reproduces the issue? Also which tools (gcc,other), and which version of sunos you're trying to build on? Also which version of python and scons.
Lastly this email should really go to the users list first to describe a problem using SCons and not the developers list which is intended to discuss the internal development of SCons so I'm cc'ing the users list.
