This question comes up with many projects. The answer that I've found that makes sense is this:
If you want the build system to work and it doesn't currently, make it work. Don't depend on someone else. If someone else is responsible for it, offer your help. If your build system doesn't exist, contribute it. Make sure you don't step on anyone else's toes with your build system, and it will likely be okay. Be sure to follow the commits list so you can ensure that your build system doesn't break. Although it's a nice idea to have a one true build system, such a build system doesn't exist. IMHO.
