Hi Greg,

I am adverse to non-DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) ways of building things, 
the CMake build script should be able to build everything that is in the 
public domain. No problem with developers having their own private 
makefiles etc but if they get checked in there is a maintenance hazard 
and they are rarely portable across the platforms we support.

There are occasional complications, for example I queried Steve K9AN 
about a Makefile he was publishing and it turns out the real problem was 
to do with random number generation and once that is sorted out the 
CMake script does the job just fine.
