In this case, I think anything involving a full-fledged programming language other than D is going to be, at the very least, controversial. Even though I've always avoided CMake since it relies on other makes on the back end, it seems like (out of all the existing build tools I'm aware of) it may be the most appropriate in DMD's case. I think that's something to further look into.
