Ok, Alex, let's try out to build something with cmake. I suggest to try
with kdevelop ;) We do have our own configure checks, m4 macroses,
we do use some Makefile.am tricks. So, I think kdevelop would be the 
good playground ;)
If you agree, please create a cvs branch for kdevelop module and
add cmake stuff there. I can help you answering any questions about
our build stuff. I also will write more cmake files once you show that
some part of the build tree compiles ;)
