sorry if I still don't understand what you're actually after. If you somehow want to "connect" your separate build script 
sct_membrane_meidum.py to your main build (because there are dependencies that you want SCons to see), then your best option is to 
put the test in the same SConstruct for your main build. This means effectively getting rid of the additional build script, and 
having just one build tree for everything.
Then, SCons can correctly pick up all the implicit dependencies from your definitions of the single targets and programs, and you 
can pick which target/Alias should get built by specifying it on the command line.

Does this help?

Best regards,
