Just a quick note on this: presumably you're doing that to speed up
startup time?  Unfortunately that doesn't work, because SCons
initializes the default env before even loading the SConstruct, and it
sets up all the default tools there.  That is one of the reasons, for
me, of revamping the tool chain -- to avoid that.
