Seconded. If you really insist on CMake, the RInside project has long had _contributed_ files in its inst/examples/*/ directories. CMake is not that widely used within the R world which is why this never became a priority here either. It simply is hard to fully replace something that works so reliably for everybody and is well enough understood, possible warts and all.
