[Scons-dev] Running tests on shared filestore

[Bill Deegan]

I've been using virtualbox sharing file system with linux vm in some cases.
Though often it's enough to make chagnes for osx, commit, push, then on
linux pull, merge, run tests, iterate.

Most cross platform breakage has been window vs The rest of the world.
