Cool, that you are working on a scons-build. I'm just getting into
scons, and it looks like I'll settle there, too. Great tool.

But you did? ;)

Hm, especially when at least prepend.c is an important external, and
it's important, that there is only one of the many prepends in the
build. The old build systems "solved" this quite nicely in that only
the prepend.c in it was built. A final solution should also deal with
the name clashes and only build and install one of the relevant
externals.

Ciao
