Or several ways. Step one is to run the local copy of ntpq (for example) using local libraries. The trick is to be sure that it is using the local libraries rather than a previously installed library.
Step two is to test the installed code to be sure the libraries got installed where it can find them and that it is using the new libraries rather than a previously installed version. Mostly, this is testing the waf recipe, but we need most of this in order to be able to test new features in the pything code and/or new features in the libraries before they get installed. If nothing else, something like this should get added to the release checklist. (I think I'm assuming we would be willing to manually clean out the installed libraries to verify they aren't getting used. I don't want to do that very often, but I'd be willing to do it occasionally as part of getting ready for a release.) -- These are my opinions.
