The following (simplified) SConstruct:

target = Install('targetdir', 'sourcedir')

def action(target, source, env):
    env.Dir('targetdir/sourcedir')

AddPostAction(target, action)

leads to:

TypeError: Tried to lookup File 'targetdir/sourcedir' as a Dir

I verified that this is also broken on version 1.2.0. I've seen it intermittently over the last few months, and two colleagues have seen it in the past week.

Is this a valid issue? Shouldn't he just be using InstallAs?
