I love the basic concept of Rant (and Rake, though Rant is better). But the thing the so many build systems lack (and which keeps pulling me back to Scons) is support for variant builds.
Are there any plans for supporting variant builds in separate directories. I need to build with multiple compilers, multiple build flags, and even multiple machines in a cross-mounted directory. This is the MOST important part of a build system.
Really, even though Rant is quite nice, any build system can handle the easy stuff. Variant builds are hard.
