I was trying to put something like this into a CMake file:

But CMake won't have it. Skipping the sub-shell is all right with CMake:
add_custom_command( ...
COMMAND ...
COMMAND [[ -f foo ]] || ln -sf foo bar
)
But then make doesn't like it if the file doesn't exist, it exits with an
error.
I put the command in an external shell script instead, but would rather
not do
that.
Any suggestions?

You could create/dynamically at configure time write out a cmake file
that does something to the effect of:
if(EXISTS foo)
execute_process(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND}) -E create_symlink
oldfilename newfilename)
endif()
then make your custom command run cmake in script mode on that file.
This will let you be cross-platform in a good way.
