well, this depends if you see the ./configure file as a binary or a
source file ...

since it is a generated file containing between 5000 to 10000 lines, i'd
consider it as a binary, that shouldn't be placed in a cvs repository
(but that should be generated for source-tarballs)

although i thought, it' pretty easy to generate the autoconf file, i
wrote the bootstrap stript ...

anyway, it might be a waste of resources, to have python installed to
build pd, the advantage of scons is the dependency tracking that is
advanced compared to the autotools ... if you compile a lot, you will
start to like the features ...

cheers, tim, who feels like being in the middle of a flamewar ;-)
