scons targets are files, just like make, except that it understands 
directory structure, so you can use paths. And yes, a directory depends 
on all targets in that directory. For example, 'scons .' would make sure 
all files are up to date in the source tree, but 'scons /' would build 
all targets anywhere in the filesystem (so would do any install rules, 
for example).

Currently the examples are considered part of the documentation, and 
'scons doc' runs them. You can't run the examples without having IMP 
built first, so that gets pulled in as a dependency.
