[Scons-users] Provide default Import to SConscript

[Hua Yanghao]

Hi Bill,
Do you think if it is useful to add a new keyword for
env.SConscript(default_imports=[xyz,abc,...])?
For return I think I can abuse some global variables. This can really
make the SConscript clean/minimal.

Best Regards,
Yanghao
