I tried to let SCons run with this patch, but I'm not able to integrate 
the patching of subprocess.Popen() successfully. I always get an import 
error for SCons.Util, and fail to see where this is actually coming from:

scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...
gcc -o d1_0/f00000_sconsbld_d1_0.o -c -Id1_0/lup000_sconsbld_d1_0 
-Id1_0/lup001_sconsbld_d1_0 d1_0/f00000_sconsbld_d1_0.c
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File 
"/home/dirk/workspace/scons_dirkbaechle/src/engine/SCons/Platform/posix.py", 
line 42, in <module>
     import SCons.Util
ImportError: No module named SCons.Util
scons: *** [d1_0/f00000_sconsbld_d1_0.o] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

Does anybody have a clue and can give me a pointer? I'd like to compare 
the times for a clean build against the default sources.

Regards,

Dirk
