You may want to talk to Peter Aberline (CC'ed) who has not only contributed but also maintained a set of CMake files for the various examples/ in the sibbling RInside package. As we do with RInside, I'd be open to distributing something within Rcpp, provided everybody understands that as long as I don't use it I won't test as much with it etc pp. But that should be more like other Makefile or our inline plugins and CxxFlags() functions -- once built, it will probably last a while without changes.
