Actually looking at this more, while waf does support the GNU autoconf
options by loading gnu_dirs.py (and Samba does this), it actually
doesn't support --disable-dependency-tracking.  That bit lives in
buildtools/wafsamba/wscript.

So I think it makes sense to patch samba's wscript to also support
--disable-silent-rules for now.

It may make sense to also have an automake_compat.py in upstream waf
which does something with the configure options shipped with Automake
(which are currently dependency-tracking, maintainer-mode, multilib,
and silent-rules)...and while we're in here an option to ignore
unknown options =)  I filed
