+1; I cringe every time I have to deal with it.
If it becomes popular, I will quickly be out of my depth maintaining the package, since I'm no gcc build expert nor a Python programmer.
Fortunately, I doubt it will; I ship only five packages which use scons in Ports. Waf (which isn't much better) seems to be the current preference for those that want Python-based general purpose build systems.
BTW, I'll remove scons from Ports at the next upload. Yaakov
