+ -- THE CheckLib Configure TEST WILL CHANGE BEHAVIOR
+
+ The CheckLib() Configure test appends the lib(s) to the
+ Environment's LIBS list in 1.3 and earlier. In 1.3 there is a
+ new CheckLib argument, append, which defaults to True to
+ preserve the old behavior. In a future release, append will
+ be changed to default to False, to conform with autoconf and
+ user expectations, since it is usually used to build up
+ library lists in a right-to-left way.

SCons is developed with an extensive regression test suite, and a
rigorous development methodology for continually improving that suite.
Because of this, SCons is of sufficient quality that you can use it
