The intended changes were mentioned in brief, but in detail it would
be all folders containing source code would be moved one level down
into a src/ directory.  This is a common practice I've seen in most
java projects as well as kde-based projects I've seen that tend to be
developed using kdevelop.  So OOps, Opcodes, frontends, Engine, InOut,
anal, H, Jsound, SDIF, strings, Top, util, util1, util2 would be
moved.  The top root directory would only have doc, src, samples,
installer, and examples.  The SConstruct would be modified to prepend
build/32/ or build/64/ to all references to src files that were moved,
and an env.BuildDir(buildDir, "src") would be used so that the
multiple targets (32/64/debug/release) could be maintained. (It would
be build into build/32/release for release files, build/32/debug for
debug files, and the same for 64).

Without moving everything into the src directory, to achieve the same
effect all of the existing directories would need to have a buildDir
for them instead of a single buildDir for the top root.

Beyond all that, I find it tidier and more explicit to have the
project folder organized this way.

It should also make building files for distribution easier
(installers, RPM's, .debs, etc.) in my opinion.
