Not exactly... but I'm sure I need clarification. I don't know if you
checked out the latest CMakeLists.txt, but I changed the IF from WIN32 to
MSVC which assumes that only MSVC users will need kernel32, ole32, etc. Let
me know if that's not the case.

Yeah, I'll need lots of help testing since I'm only building for linux to
make sure we get all the right conditionals necessary for the different
build systems and platforms.

My suggestion is to get the linux building pretty bulletproof and then
change the README/INSTALL to suggest using the cmake builds for Linux and
the autoconf for everything else, then as we figure out all the platform
variances, move everyone over to cmake over time.
