Mmm Jasen
they must have fixed/changed something already as I'm using scons 
0.96.93.  I know what I have done its a horrible hack but there seems to 
be no other obvious way to position the -L flags anywhere else but at 
the beginning of the libraries. I suppose one answer is to write ones 
own execution environment. Are you suggesting that the pkg-config trick 
(obviously without all the 'echo' stuff) won't work either once they 
sort the quoting. The problem I had was that the command line I was 
trying to use was always in double quotes which of course caused the 
pkg-config command to fail.
Is there a sloution to this?

Best
