Hi Mike,

Just a couple things:

-for commandline, I use a build.sh shell script I put together that
just calls scons with all the flags i need, i.e.

#!/bin/sh
scons gcc4opt=x buildInterfaces=x ...    $@

where x is a value and ... are more values.  I put the $@ at the end
so I can pass in extra things to scons, so if I just want to build one
one library I can do that.

-don't use the install target in Scons.  that's long out of date.
instead use the install.py script (python install.py).  I believe you
can pass in an install root with that.
