What good does scons do us?  It has given me much grief.  Surely cabal
can build yhc proper.  As for the interpreter:

IE, less than 6x the time needed to compile a Haskell "hello world"
with comparable optimization settings.  (For those less familiar with
ghc options, -funit-at-a-time means whole program optimization in this
context.) We probably don't need separate compilation, let alone
dependency generation.
