[LAD] SConstruct for building minicomputer with fltk versions 1 + 2 in simultaneous existence

Hi,

The MiniComputer softsynth  has problems building on many distros when
fltk-1.x is installed alongside fltk2, and/or the #include directories
don't match where MiniComputer expects them to be and so the build fails
at the configuration stage.

In an effort to fix this quite long standing problem, I've adapted the
SConstruct to use fltk-config and pkg-config to solve these problems.

If you have problems building MiniComputer replace the SConstruct that
comes with MiniComputer with the following file (obviously rename it to
SConstruct first):

It works for me on Gentoo (using accept keyword ~amd64).

I posted here because:

1) I saw similar questions without answers on the list in the past.

2) I've spent several hours getting this to work so people might benefit
from it.

3) I'm a python/scons newbie and hope that those of you with better
knowledge can check it for problems (I've only got this to work by using
Google, trial, and error).

Cheers,
James.
