Comment #2 on issue 979 by Carl.D.Sorensen: waf build system
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=979

Thomas Nagy (head waf developer) claims this is desired behavior -- i.e.  
you can't have a file in both blddir
and srcdir.


He suggests that you move the source file to another directory, e.g. a  
subdirectory of srcdir.

I tested a modification of the above and found that it worked:

sorensen2:src Carl$ cat wscript
#! /usr/bin/env python
# encoding: utf-8

VERSION='0.0.1'
APPNAME='test'
srcdir = '.'
blddir = 'build'

def configure(conf):
        pass

def build(bld):
        bld.new_task_gen(source='c', target='d', rule='cp ${SRC} ${TGT}')
        bld.new_task_gen(source='subdir/e', target='e', rule='cp ${SRC}  
${TGT}')


$ waf build
Waf: Entering directory `waftest/src/build'
[1/2] e: subdir/e -> build/default/e
[2/2] d: c -> build/default/d
Waf: Leaving directory `waftest/src/build'
'build' finished successfully (0.385s)

I don't know if this is helpful or not, but it's Thomas's recommended  
workaround.
