This is a completely different thing.  SCons itself needs to work in 2 and
3, and fixing octal constants (even if we don't get 100% of them in the
first pass) is a good step toward that.  Separately, some users will need
help porting SConscripts, but that doesn't diminish the usefulness of this
change.
