Pretty much.  It was a Windows installer that installed a standalone
scons.exe that did not require (and in fact would ignore) any existing
python on the system.  I don't think it's quite possible to make a single
"portable" scons.exe that contains _everything_ needed though; at some
point it has to unpack some shared libs and stuff into a subdir.
