think as a legacy OS it can just stay with a legacy SCons.  We can always
backport any hi-priority fixes to the 2.2 line.

What do we gain specifically by desupporting 2.6?  Do things become easier?
 I guess I like Jason's idea of trying for 2.6, but if we find anything
that's ugly or difficult or hurts performance or whatever, we drop 2.6 and
go for 2.7.  But of course if you know of 2.6 issues already, then I'm fine
with 2.7.
