+         Your shell has been configured to use Homebrew's build environment: this
+         should help you build stuff. Notably though, the system versions of gem
+         and pip will ignore our configuration and insist on using the
+         environment they were built under (mostly). Sadly, scons will also
+         ignore our configuration.
+         When done, type `exit'.
