In addition, I can find four ancient (closed) issues related to this:

https://github.com/scons/scons/issues/639
https://github.com/scons/scons/issues/742
https://github.com/scons/scons/issues/1201
https://github.com/scons/scons/issues/1206

naturally, all have to with using Sun compilers, not gcc.
