Awesome! PS. I hate autotools too, like anyone else. When something goes wrong it's often ridiculously difficult to debug. Is there anything that autotools does that can't be done better with a modern build system? If there aren't strong objections I might put some effort in to getting sawfish/rep/rep-gtk building with scons as a proof of concept. Any other scons users here? Currently git librep fails to configure on OpenBSD 4.9-release.
