I will definitely be checking this out. I've used CMake with C++ for
quite a large project and it's been very good at of getting the done
without being the infinite tower of turtles on turtles that autotools
seems to be.
(I never managed to learn autotools so perhaps they don't seem as bad
once you're using them.)

With excellent help from Jens Mueller and Dean Calver, CMake for D2
now passes our small suite of unit tests on both Windows and Linux.
Our tests include mixed C-D applications and libraries. We tested
with CMake 2.8.2 and DMD 2.048. We'd appreciate if a few hardy souls
were willing to take a test drive. Check it out here:
http://code.google.com/p/cmaked2. Please report problems on the
cmaked2 tracker rather than here.
Unfortunately, we have not had an opportunity to test on Mac OS's.
Briefly, CMake is a cross-platform "make maker". Many people find
CMake more attractive than traditional Makefiles or Autotools,
especially for large projects. You can find more information here:
