Hello,

There's been some talk about moving the DOLFIN build system to
SCons. Any news on this front? We did some work on the build system a
few months ago, introducing libtool for example, but there's still
work to do.

I think the autotools system is starting to show its age, perhaps
there is no alternative for ultra-portability, but that's not really a
priority for us. So I would very much support an effort to switch to
something better for us, and do my best to help, even if I have no
experience with SCons.
