Igor,
First, thanks for trying it.
Please always state your build environment. What operating system, and
what tool chain is it trying to use?
mingw32?
cygwin?
I will assume windows in the discussion below:
Then be aware of my remarks that it has not been tested on Windows.
There is some massaging required. It would only take about an hour to
get it to work on windows, but my Windows days are mostly over.
To deal with your issues, and assuming Windows, I would stick with the
GNU compiler as your first attempt, and this means Mingw. So when
generating your make files, be sure and use the command line option with
tells it to use Mingw, not MS VC. Also make sure all your toolchain
commands are in your path, including svn client and gcc.
You are blazing a trail. You are leader, and as such there will be some
experimentation required. Here is a hint:
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake2.6docs.html#opt:-Ggenerator-name
Read the section on "generators" and stick with gnu gcc from mingw and
you should get through it.

Dick
