As far as I can see the biggest obstacle is the inclusion of cmake in sage. While functionally equivalent autotools has a strong lead in mind share and length of its proven record. The fact that autotools doesn't need anything to be installed for the user deploying is also usually seen as a bonus. If you had 50 packages using cmake, having to install one more wouldn't seem such a bad deal but that's not where we are.
