I'm sorry if that sounded flippant... but I'm 100% serious. I used to work there, and they take the crash reports very seriously, and they actually do get the majority of them fixed eventually. But if you don't send them in, then they don't know about them.
Also: I've simply never heard this complaint before, so I'd be surprised if it was CMake's fault. Having said all of this, though, please do send us steps so that we can reproduce the problem, or possibly, figure out if there's something wrong with the generated files that can be changed. If we can incorporate a work-around into CMake, then we are happy to do so. We have work-arounds in there for far less serious bugs than complete/100% reproducible crashing bugs...
