I'll also point at the project I worked on that introduced me to SCons. 
I didn't invent this scheme, I tried to polish it some, but it was at 
very the beginning of my learning curve.  You're looking for the 
directory "extlibs" for the actual included projects, and the scripts 
"external_builders.scons" and "external_libs.scons" in "build_common", 
which are called from the SConscript in that directory.  I now consider 
this kind of ugly, but it did work.

(archived - that project has been superseded by a complete rewrite which 
doesn't even use SCons)

Bet there are many other samples out there.
