[Clam-devel] IMPORTANT: more changes to build system

[Xavier Amatriain]

I think you understood it the other way around: what Eclipse can't do is 
call scons without arguments.
Calling configure from outside does not help because every time scons is 
called with arguments configure
is called again.

What I would need is for scons without arguments to be called 
automatically after the configure step
(if this is going to be enforced).
