  Speed up the SubstitionEnvironment.__setitem__() method by: 1) avoiding
  checking for whether the variable name is legal if it already exists; 2)
  use the regular expression directly when checking the form for illegality;

  timing script so we can document why we implemented it as we did and
  revisit it in the future if need be.

  * Added java_where_java_home - gets  JAVA_HOME  path
  * Added path's to find java for sun's JDK rpm install to java_where_jar

  Add --warn=no-python-version to the $SCONSFLAGS variable when running
  tests under deprecated Python versions, so the warning doesn't interfere
  with running normal tests under those version.

  Have the test/python-version.py remove --warn=no-python-version from the
  $SCONSFLAGS variable, since it's explicitly testing that behavior.
