"scons dist" doesn't work with scons-0.96.94 - yields in the message below.

I've fixed the compatibility issues with 0.96.94 in CVS. It should now work with both 93 and 94.

I'll wait for release, because I'd like to to see if this patch http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index...49&atid=373087
would be integrated.
