Fixing #654506 and #674386 in Wheezy

Hi -

It's easy to fix #654506 because supercollider never used waf so the
file can simply be deleted in repacking a ~dfsg version, and build
will still work fine.

I don't want to work on #674386 because working on the scons build is
a waste of time when we've junked it long ago, and the bug is
apparently caused by a limitation in dh's handling of scons, i.e. not
code I have any expertise in. Does anyone have a patch that might fix
it? If so then maybe we can go for it.

Dan
