Do you have flex installed?
(hsn@ttyp1):~/sf/fsp% flex --version
flex version 2.5.4

do you have 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fsp/files/fsp/2.8.1b26/fsp-2.8.1b26.tar.gz/download 
?

because if I redefine CC from command line, it is picked by scons correctly:

(hsn@ttyp1):~/sf/fsp% scons CC=non-existent-compiler
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Checking whether the C compiler worksno
error: no result
(hsn@ttyp1):~/sf/fsp%

byte swapping should not be problem because I use standard C macros for 
conversion from host to network byte order.
