Roland, SCons is being initialized with a minimal set of "hints" in the platform initialization file as with every other platform init file. It's told in which paths to find binaries and the glue files for the linker. AFAIU, the rest is up to the developer setting up the SConscripts correctly. If, of course, other platforms toolchains have a wider set of default search and include paths, then one might reconsider providing some more hints to SCons on Haiku by default. But I think it is not necessary. Building blender with the SCons 1.0.1 patch from haiku-ports shows no issues at all. (After setting up the blender-specific platform init file) Michael
