Hi Mark

That's the whole point, both systems for compiling are used by the project now.
Drobilla implemented WAF a few months back. But it seems the devs are mainly
using WAF now, although both are still available to use.

Have a look at bug 2693 and 2696 (which I posted)... I definitely didn't
implement the WAF system in here.. I'm not a coder...
