CMake would be great.  LLVM/Clang already use it.  It can generate ninja
build files.  It shows what it is doing with ccmake.  It should make cross
compiling more straight forward.

And libobjc2 already uses it.  hehe

I tried working with those config files in base last year and found them
very frustrating, refering to code and options that seemed many years old
and unsupported.
