They provide a bootstrap script that downloads it, but i consider it
better that we handle that on our own/infra for obvious reasons.
Regarding host-waf it's not really a good idea, essentially you've got
several major waf versions say 1.6.x, 1.8.x and soon 1.9.x which aren't
too drop-in compatible.
Even the mpv authors frowned upon upgrading the 1.8.12 preferred version
with the latest 1.8.x (1.8.20) in their tracker (not from me, rather
when looking about open issues/improvements).
And then there's samba which has an extended waf (wafsamba) and are
stuck on the 1.6.x series because of that.
Regards.
