Hi Alex, 

 thank you very much for your helpful reply ! :)

 The version of the (I think) related programs are

 Python 2.3.4
 scons:
   SCons by Steven Knight et al.:
           script: v0.96.90.D001, 2005/02/15 20:11:37, by knight on casablanca
           engine: v0.95.D001, 2004/03/08 07:28:28, by knight on casablanca

   (This is the output I get when doing a "scons --version"

 gcc 3.3.4
 
 I updated scons to the current version some time due to the problems
 I have with installing yafray but it does not help. I dont know what
 version I had before installing the current one.

 If all application would fail to build, which are using scons
 (blender for example is far bigger than yafray and I am really able
 to use my Linux box while blender is compiling which I can forget
 while yafray tries to reach the electrical light of its
 existence....), I would say there would be something really wrong
 with my system, but yafray is the only application which turn my
 system into a cpu hardcore tester..... ;)))

 Anything else I forgot to report ?
 Hmmm...for the moment I dont think so (this will rapidly change,
 when I have pressed the "SEND" button, hehehe....)
 
 Have a nice weekend!
