Thank you for the warning and support. We would prefer to not maintain
a fork, but I have not been able to find any other technology
that is suitable.

For future reference. The intended use-case is for CMake to act 
as an engine in an IDE project generator solution similar to the below
solutions[0].

We once had an option to produce relative paths in the build system and it was 
a never ending mess of bugs.  Eventually it was ripped out.
It is unlikely we will accept changes to try to re-introduce such an option.
