Let's not go this route with cmake.
I dislike Automake + Autoconf + Make + Libtool because they're fragile. So was Xlib / Xt / Motif back when I was doing that many years ago. Layers break easily, especially when the layers are not based on any kind of type safety, but are just layer upon layer of macro stuff. CMake is definitely better integrated than the Automake toolchain. I would encourage Martin to help with further CMake integrations and improvements.
