The nice thing about SCons at this point is that it is written in python
and that all your SConscript files are written in python as well. 
Therefore you can write something like
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
EnsurePythonVersion(2, 7)

and see what actually happens.
Using the python debugger is documented here:
