"""SCons.SConf

Autoconf-like configuration support.

In other words, SConf allows to run tests on the build machine to detect
capabilities of system and do some things based on result: generate config
files, header files for C/C++, update variables in environment.

Tests on the build system can detect if compiler sees header files, if
libraries are installed, if some command line options are supported etc.
