First immediate thought:

I have found it best to store values in a file rather than a command
line: Autoconf/Automake and Waf have a configuration stage and a build
stage so configuration stage options persist across all build
executions. SCons is build stage only and doesn't have a real way of
persisting things.  Yes, they should persist in the SCons database but I
am not sure that works well as a user experience, much better to bring
that persistence out explicitly in a file.

So I would suggest that GVars need to be able to process a configuration
file. Currently I just cheat and exec a Python script.
