But cmake also substitues configure script, so you have to have cmake 
installed to perform configuration. It would be great if cmake could 
generate from its "cashe of variables" the configure shell script 
independent of cmake, but...

That said, fltk projects for (some? most? all?) IDE targets do not have 
any configure, instead they have their own more-less static config.h and 
many alternative targets. Maybe all these can be generated from cmake 
before generating distribution tarbal instead of having independent IDEs 
  but still keep the core for unix makefiles & configure arround?

Aslo we could probably get rid of Makefile.mingw and/or strongly suggest 
to use MSYS and standard configure script for MingW compilation too - it 
works very well...
