One is the recipe syntax. I have difficulty trusting the internals of
any language-like tool in which the surface features of the design look
so ugly and verbose.
A bigger one is that I think the two-level design -- cmake making makefiles --
must inevitably have many of the same fundamental weaknesses as autotools,
Imake, and other makefile-generator systems. I am intimately familiar with
these and want to get away from that approach. As far away as possible.
