+Enable precompiled C++ header support (currently only clang++ and g++ are supported)
+
+To use this tool, wscript should look like:
+
+	def options(opt):
+		opt.load('pch')
+		# This will add `--with-pch` configure option.
+		# Unless --with-pch during configure stage specified, the precompiled header support is disabled
+
+	def configure(conf):
+		conf.load('pch')
+		# this will set conf.env.WITH_PCH if --with-pch is specified and the supported compiler is used
+		# Unless conf.env.WITH_PCH is set, the precompiled header support is disabled
+
+	def build(bld):
+		bld(features='cxx pch',
+			target='precompiled-headers',
+			name='precompiled-headers',
+			headers='a.h b.h c.h', # headers to pre-compile into `precompiled-headers`
+
+			# Other parameters to compile precompiled headers
+			# includes=...,
+			# export_includes=...,
+			# use=...,
+			# ...
+
+			# Exported parameters will be propagated even if precompiled headers are disabled
+		)
+
+		bld(
+			target='test',
+			features='cxx cxxprogram',
+			source='a.cpp b.cpp d.cpp main.cpp',
+			use='precompiled-headers',
+		)
+
+		# or
+
+		bld(
+			target='test',
+			features='pch cxx cxxprogram',
+			source='a.cpp b.cpp d.cpp main.cpp',
+			headers='a.h b.h c.h',
+		)
+
+Note that precompiled header must have multiple inclusion guards.  If the guards are missing, any benefit of precompiled header will be voided and compilation may fail in some cases.
