I know I'm one of those two ;-) As said that's the current status, but
like I said later in that mail I want to start to maintain cmake.

I know MSVC should be good quality I use cmake and MSVC myself in
another project. But we have quite some custom scripts in cmake/ and
I've no idea how well tested they are on MSVC. (We still need to
evaluate which of those scripts are really needed after moving to cmake
2.6.) 

At some places we still use shell scripts inherited from the autotools
build system, which of course is not portable at all. I'm only not sure
whether these scripts are really needed to build the system or only used
by the translation and the release manager. But I'll dive deeper into
these issues later.
