This idea doesn't work as is.

I tried:

	map(str, Glob('*.cc')).remove('theFile.cc')

but that fails because str causes absolute paths to be generated.

	 map(str, Glob('*.cc')).remove(File('theFile.cc').abspath)

fails because the abspath of a File is in the build directory and I have
a variant build to get the compilation products out of the source
directory. Fortunately:

	map(str, Glob('*.cc')).remove(str(File('theFile.cc'))

appears to do the trick.

Sadly this must be classified as hacking, SCons build folk should not
have to do this sort of thing. There must be a better way.
