Well, other things have kept me busy lately, so there's nothing much
new here.  But I haven't heard any objections in principle, and I
think we've dealt with all the hiccups in practice that have come up
via it.

For current systems, this should be a solid improvement.  For not so
current systems, it may even be a bigger improvement, though offset by
the fact that those systems probably don't have cmake around or easily
installable already; with that done they're probably a lot better than
the stale imake configs they'll have around, but it's a higher bar.
But when you get back into 90's systems or old compilers, this will
close the door on them.

I'm OK with that, and I haven't heard anybody else opposed.  So
lacking anybody throwing up last minute flags, I'll land it this week.
