After the configure step you would do `./waf uninstall` and it would reverse a 
potential `./waf install`, removing the installed files.

I don't see a install function at the bottom of the wscript either so I assume 
these are handled by Waf directly? I'm not super familiar with the system.

That may be the case. I know the main RTEMS repo and rtems-lwip have the 
ability to use this uninstall command so I figured rtems-libbsd should have it 
too.
