Unfortunately the 'Adds "target Python" support to SConstruct.' commit seems to 
break scons -c (and scons --help):

NameError: name 'python_config' is not defined:
  File "/home/rob/Code/gpsd/SConstruct", line 1223:
    python_env['CC'] = python_config['CC']

So some python variables need to be available in the cleaning or helping path.
