I had compiling svn blender working fine on another computer but now it seems that it doesn’t work on this one. The only differences i can think of are a more recent version of scons and python 2.6. I’m getting this error:

scons: *** [C:\build\build_dir\source\blender\makesdna\intern\dna.c] Exception

Edit* I had to set the build_dir in the user-config file and it worked.
