Yes, the --top and --out options works somehow, but I get a warning like 
this:

Waf: Entering directory 
`/home/EB/sebastian_h/src/rtems-source-builder/tmp/build/sparc/erc32'
CWD /home/EB/sebastian_h/src/rtems-source-builder/tmp is not under 
/home/EB/sebastian_h/src/rtems, forcing --targets=* (run distclean?)

Also the documentation says "Though Waf may be called from any folder 
containing a /wscript/ file,", so I am not sure if this is really 
supported what I am doing.
