I've had a lot of problems in the past with cmake. Has anyone taken a look at other multi-platform solutions like Jam? It has been a number of years since I have used both Perforce's Jam and its derivative Boost Jam and Boost Build. And before getting all medieval on this post about C++ dependencies, Boost's Jam and Build at least were maintained independently so that they could be easily used for other projects without requiring Boost libraries. While drafting this email I came across references for SCons. Since we have been talking about general python support, this might also be a decent option, but I have no personal experience with it.
