I agree SCons is a nice system.  However, by it's very nature it is slow
to start up.  No problem for big builds but a pain for small builds and
for bash completion.  Also, the autoconf, etc. support is not that good
-- mostly just a lack of all the stuff out there actually being put into
the standard distribution.  Waf is a, now incompatible, fork of SCons
that has taken different design decisions.  I find working with any of
SCons, Waf and Rant a whole lot easier than CMake and Autotools.

But I suspect this is all now a bit off-topic for this list.

PS to Murray -- thanks for the pointers about GTKmm use you just posted
on my Web site, I will follow this up.
