the tools index at

   https://bitbucket.org/scons/scons/wiki/ToolsIndex

lists two different Sphinx tools, and there is also a repo at

   https://bitbucket.org/russel/scons_sphinx

. All these are in a state of "external tool" (meaning that they aren't developed and maintained together with the core sources), 
and integrating them as "standard" extension would require one of the repo maintainers to contact the core devs. In addition to 
expressing his wish for his Sphinx tool to be delivered with the default distributions of SCons, he would have to add proper 
documentation and tests with it.
To my knowledge this hasn't happened so far...
For the current status of the single repos (are they still developed actively?) you may want to contact the respective owner of each.

Best regards,

Dirk
