	Installing mingw/msys might sort it out or it might not, I don't know. Scons says it defaults to msvc if it is present (and looks for the registry for it, so paths will not matter then). At home, 'gcc', 'mingw', etc. are found as tools, but it does not look like they are found in your system, perhaps you need to re-install scons. If you make the simple changes I advised, you will not need to maintain anything, it will work, as the defaults will change to gcc etc. Of course if you are installing stuff again, you will need to re-set the defaults to gcc etc. If you can find an alternative fix that works and loads custom-msvc.py, go ahead and do it. But I would prefer if it was done automatically, by looking at the toolset found by scons, if possible (it should indeed be possible, if scons is working correctly). As I am building stuff on several platforms, the more self-configuring things are, the better, as I am also short on time for development.
