I don't think you want scons-local; you just want regular scons.
scons_local is intended to be integrated into a project and called
from that project "locally" (i.e. within that dir).  That's why it has
no installer, configure, etc.

Regular scons installs using 'python setup.py install' like usual, so
that's probably what you want.
