Need to write up on this, no time now though, sorry. One of the primary reasons is the lack of crosscompiling support. Overall I think waf could be used for pretty basic high-level applications and even relatively small libraries which do not have lots of configure-time variables (ie projects which got a pretty straight-forward autotools setup nowadays too), but is not suited (yet?) for more low-level libraries, next to the fact I'm afraid the lack of documentation of both the internal code and end-user docs are killers.
