So in order to need just a single Python installation for being able to contribute to this project, i took the branch https://bitbucket.org/userzimmermann/scons, built a scons-local package from that and integrated that into our repository. That works quite well with PYthon 3.3, although we sometime experience problem when doing parallel builds (e.g -j4) - Scons is trying to access a build target while a custom builder still has a handle open for that file. But since we are using a 'hacked' version of Scons, i will surely not complain.

Is there any way we can integrate your work into the SCons repository so
that current default/tip can be merged into the python3 branch with your
work so we have an official releasable version of SCons for Python 3
that is harmonious with the current SCons release?
