[Bf-committers] SCons update

[Michel Selten]

Hi,

Here's an update on the new SCons build environment. The last couple of
days, a lot has changed with regards to the files I recently sent to the
list.
Thanks to IanWill, Hos, jesterKing and sgefant, the status has changed
from only working on Linux to:
- Windows
  - builds with quicktime (optional)
  - builds with openal (optional)
  - builds with international support (optional)
  - tested with MSVC 7
  - use the DOS box to build
- Irix
  - uses the default Irix compiler
  - not all optimization levels correct yet, but it's a work in
    progress
  - options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- Cygwin
  - options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
  - has a problem in the linking stage
  - uses gcc and all other free tools
- MacOS
  - Sgefant has it almost working. Changes are not yet merged.
  - Last thing to do is to build a bundle.
  - options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- Linux
  - options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
    I'm currently working to get the international features enabled.
  - doesn't use the prebuilt libraries yet (should be an option).

Also of interest: the -j flag works! This has been tested by Hos and
jesterKing!

I always upload the latest status to: http://members.home.nl/michel.s/

Anyway, it's a work in progress as you all can see, but thanks to all
the aforementioned people things are looking pretty good on at least 4
platforms (with support for 2 environments on Windows).

Platforms still to get working:
- FreeBSD
- Solaris
- Linux/PPC

A lot TODO's are still left, but we're getting somewhere.

With regards,
	Michel
