Looks like SCons is missing a "tool preference system", where each user
(developer, not end user) could easily re-define by its own the
preferred order of compiler toolchains. The same applies to other tools.
Don't worry, there will always be room for discussion, for example "what
should be the default preference order" :)
Best regards!

Im not sure what percentage of linux devs use clang vs gcc, but my
personal experience is gcc is more widely used.

This may work fine, but if SCons does not have tools called clang,
clang
++, clanglink *AND* detection of clang for the cc, c++ and link tools,
then SCons has no credible support for Clang.
My real question is whether SCons should prefer clang over gcc for
Linux.
