Okay, you're saying that you've commented out the InstallAs calls and it
works, but you've printed what the targets would have been for those and
they look suitably unique?  Or is my reparsing of the comment from your
earlier message wrong?

If so, it seems you've proven where the problem comes from (InstallAs)
and maybe SCons is interpreting that path differently than the pure
Python string comes out?
