Comment(by mcayland):

 Well I don't mind taking a look except for the fact that the only Windows
 VM I have access to is an old 32-bit XP virtual - I really don't have much
 call for Windows these days...

 Part of me is wondering if I should start resurrect my CMake proof-of-
 concept from a while back. Unfortunately it would probably require an RFC
 because it will involve removing the C preprocessor from the build process
 and various other tweaks. What are people's thoughts on this? If we go
 CMake, we should remove autotools entirely as it makes absolutely no sense
 to support more than one build system. Also does CMake work under Solaris?
