I'd like to see this brought back. Not cool to drop autoconf when the
CMake setup can't build shared libraries. From
`zookeeper-client/zookeeper-client-c/README`:
```
Current limitations of the CMake build system include lack of Solaris
support,
no shared library option, no explicitly exported symbols (all are exported
by
default), no versions on the libraries, and no documentation generation.
