I waded through some of them, but floundered on a syntax error on line 96 of SConscript: str2png_srcs = Split ("""str2png.c"""). The error pointed to the last "s" in str2png_srcs. I went back and forth looking for "typos" in SConscript and str2png.c, but found none. Using google I stumbled upon a newer version of SConscript you'd written. That reqauired I go to the debian repository and upgrade to SCons 0.78, which I did, but that brought a host of new error messages. I've given up for now because I don't want to upgrade to too many "unstable" package upgrades. I love the port of the HP-15c to the iPhone. I own two working HP-15c's, but a "hacked" iPhone pretty well does all I need to do with the weight of a pocket sized PDA for me, and that's more than a 15-c can now do.
