Not that I'm plugging this, but if you want a Python-based, but
designed for embedding, build system, Waf
(http://code.google.com/p/waf/) might be of interest. It generates a <
100k script that can be run on any system with Python installed (ok,
still a problem with Windows, but installing another Unix build system
on Windows is probably even more of a pain).
