Hi Bill,
I know it is a bad bad idea that's why I am asking for a better way :)
I almost forgot we have site_scons/site_init.py to play with. I create
quite a few different env but I guess if site_init.py is loaded fast
enough I should be able to override it there ...
Will let you know the result.
BR, Yanghao
