Nope, situation is more complex.

Waf can produce 'wafscript' which is basically a 'configure' file. That's not a preferred form for modifications, like you wouldn't want to modify 'configure' script directly (and not 'configure.ac'). Why waf won't build on hppa - I have no idea, it's a pure Python app.

Their stance regarding system-wide installation is curious, but not a problem.
