Just to give some feedback: I did use the building steps as outlined on the 
wiki to setup the build directories and install directory. But since then I'm 
only running make from either terminal or kdevelop. This means although I have 
the self-compiled cmake somewhere, I'm not using it. If we depend on cmake 
master at least my current setup would fail requiring me to reconfigure each of 
my kdevelop projects to use the right cmake.

Given that it's already lots of work to keep up with the constant breakage due 
to changes in frameworks the outlook of also having breakage in cmake is 
nothing I look forward to.

Cheers
Martin
