[Scons-users] feature request: gcc support for AIX

[Bill Deegan]

Chris,

By default SCons will try to first use any native compilers present and
then try others.

It sounds like you have both xlc and gcc on your system so you will need to
specify the tool list in your Environment() creation.

Environment(tools=['gcc','g++','ar','link'...]
