It should be true that non-Lindens will not actually need to use scp for 
anything; all the dependencies that you need should be http urls.

However, the current version of autobuild fails trying to find scp even 
if it's never used...

I've posted a patch to correct this, which you can download from the 
review and use locally until either it or some better fix is applied:
