I'm a little confused, so if you don't mind, can you fill me in a little
more on the background here?  We have a wscript file for examples/VFS,
but the waf build won't ever use source3/Makefile.in.

I'm of course all in favour of making the waf build work in more places
- I'm just trying to make sure I understand exactly how this helps.

Do you mean instead that this allows the 'everything' build to run on
more systems, and then do a waf build for smbtorture4?
