So it looks like things are fine through line 152, with scons doing the
compilation to objects just after saying:

vc.py:msvc_setup_env() env:LIBPATH -> ['C:\\Program Files
(x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\\VC\\LIB']

and then it goes wrong when the mslink tool initializes, as it says:

msvc_setup_env_once CALLED FROM mslink.py
msvc_setup_env()
get_default_version()
get_default_version(): msvc_version:None msvs_version:None
installed_vcs:['14.1', '14.0', '12.0', '12.0Exp', '10.0', '10.0Exp',
'9.0Exp']
msvc_setup_env: using default installed MSVC version '14.1'


It shouldn't be doing what it's doing, the earlier calls to
msvc_setup_env_once should have caused MSVC_SETUP_RUN to be set in the
environment, and so the function should just return, not go on and call
msvc_setup_env and come up with new answers. So presumably it must be
using a new environment?

What a mess that stuff all is.  I can't figure why the mslink tool is
being initialized a second time, as it already ran to do the first batch
of setup, the time it knew about MSVC_VERSION - line 86 of your paste.

Needs one of the wizards to explain, I guess.
