I don't recall running into this myself, but a few times I had to
trigger a full rebuild because I was getting link errors. Like scons
missed a dependency and did not recompile some object. Only happens in
the gui code, so maybe it is related to the QT pre-processing.

I still prefer scons. Much easier to use and understand than the
autotools framework.

That would be cool! I want to start building packages of svn snapshots
to make it easier for users to test. So far destdir is hanging me up.
It's probably really simple, but I just haven't been able get it right.
