Ok, I worked around the ninja problem by compiling with make on Windows, make however required linker/archiver "response files" to get around the command line length limit on Windows.
The cmake toolchain file in the emscripten SDK (under cmake/Modules/Platform) has all the necessary cmake settings to use response files with make, the details are outlined in this old ticket: https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/issues/2295 Cheers! -Floh.
