I'm using waf under Linux as well, since it keeps the source tree clean,
You can do the same with Autotools, though it admittedly doesn't enforce it. Just run configure from the directory you want the build files in, e.g:
$ mkdir _build $ cd _build $ ../configure [options]
That's only partially true, at least when using a Git clone. autogen.sh script puts quite a few files in the source directory, and then make will put even more, if building any of the Vala plugin.
It is true for the release tarball though, if you don't mind using Vala compiler of the person making the tarball.
