The basic SCons package supports only the MSVC precompiled packages; however, there is a tool named 'Gch' that does the same thing for GCC-based compilers. Both have a very similar syntax. Couldn't they be merged into one standard tool?
This would improve SCons portability. Also, if such a tool would be created, it would be better to force the precompiled header pre-inclusion in the source files (like GCC's -include option); this would simplify porting the Qt programs to SCons, for example, because its MetaObject Compiler don't include the PCH into the generated source (the only option now is using '-include' directly, but this makes the build script GCC-bound).

Bug party triage. Good idea, but it's very unlikely that core developer time will be available to work on it in the near term.

Minimally updated version of attachment (2to3/black). Funky naming because github is fussy about allowed file suffixes for uploads.
@bdbaddog should we consider dropping this onto contrib?
Hrm. We have PCH for MSVC, but not for gcc?
