I am not sure what makes a compiler OpenMP compatible, but you can use TRY_COMPILE and TRY_RUN to test code fragments. Most likely that is what your autotools stuff was doing. It should be pretty easy to move the autotools over to cmake. CMake is very good at having cmake time options. The SET, IF, and OPTION commands would be worth looking at.
