[Scons-dev] nologo is always added to MSVC builds

[Daniel Moody]

I was wondering if there is a reason for this? It seems /nologo flag is
added in msvc.py, so if your doing a build on windows, you have to manually
remove it in your scons build files if you want to see the MSVC compiler
banner.

Also this is causing the test\Win32\mingw.py test to fail for me because
mingw g++ doesn't know what /nologo is.

some options:
1. Some logic could placed in mingw.py to remove nologo, but user still has
to remove the flag to see the banner (non-default MSVC compiler behavior)
2. The user should add the flag themselves if they want to remove the start
up banner from output (standard default).

What do you think is right?
