Damn this looks good!
I think I'm going to switch...never really liked all those annoying auto tools :-\

[EDIT]
WOW! Now I see why KDE is switching to SCons :)
You just need to make a single small text file for checking libs, settings directory etc. Here is a small example:

Code:

Library('libtest', ['libtest.cpp'])



env = Environment(LIBPATH='.', CPPPATH = '.')

conf = Configure(env)



if not conf.CheckLibWithHeader('test', 'main.h', 'C++', 'test();', 1):

    print 'Did not find libtest.a or test.lib, exiting!'

    Exit(1)



env = conf.Finish()



env.Program('test2', 'test2.cpp')

This will:

build static lib 'libtest.a',
check if libtest.a and main.h exist,
the function 'test()' can be called,
append lib libtest to the lib list if all gone well
Build test2 and link it with libtest

With autotools this would give me about 10 scripts and 5 config files ;)
