Waf build bug/quirk

[Hal Murray]

If I run waf build after a clean build, It does this:
...
'build' finished successfully (0.451s)
...
--- building host --- 
Waf: Entering directory `/home/murray/ntpsec/play/hgm/host'

What's going on?

waf install does a build, so if you run waf install as root, it leaves files behind that are owned by root.  That's not polite.
