OK. Poor choice of words.  Got a better suggestion?

If you specify a prefix at install time, it is ignored, the one specified at 
configure time is used.

Try:
  ./waf install --prefix=bar --destdir=foo
and look at the result in foo/

I get:
[murray@hgm raw]$ ll foo/usr/local/
drwxrwxr-x 3 murray murray 4096 Dec 20 15:43 lib
drwxrwxr-x 2 murray murray 4096 Dec 20 15:43 sbin
drwxrwxr-x 2 murray murray 4096 Dec 20 15:43 bin
