Sort of, but...no, not really.

Since this tool would be cable of generating any platform-specific
makefile or script or whatever, and there's no reason to restrict it
to *only* generate a makefile/script for the current platform, that
means it can function much like a cross-compiler:

Well if you output a build file for a different tool that's completely
different.

And more complicated. To quote myself (and fix a typo): The margins involved are small enough to make it difficult for the solution to not become worse than the problem.

The sheer fact that this thread has been going on for so long without a slam-dunk solution emerging is quite telling.
