[Python-Dev] using SCons to build Python

[Adam MacBeth]

Has anyone ever considered using SCons to build Python? SCons is a
great build tool written in Python that provides some Autoconf-like
functionality (http://www.scons.org). It seems like this type of
self-hosting would be a great testament to the power of Python as well
as helping to reinforce the strength of SCons as a next generation
build tool.

Thanks,
Adam
