Just mention a few, because i am not aware of that.

I only see XML, used to be more or less a programming language in combination 
with template like definitions.
And it is even harder to read and follow then Cmake itself, which is not so 
easy too.
I don't understand why XML was choosen, i think plain python/wxPython, would 
have bin much better. But maybe i am just 
missing the concept, which would explain why XML was/is just the best choice.

<if cond="FORMAT=='msvc' or FORMAT=='mingw' or FORMAT=='gnu' or 
FORMAT=='autoconf'">
     <command>( cd $(__cmddir) &amp;&amp; $(__cmdstr) )</command>
</if>

The above is just weird to me, knowing enough about XML myself. I think 
bakefile is parsing the "cond" parameter itself.
to me its looks the XML is more in the way then that it helps.

Enlight me !! :-)

Yes, but it is also confusing to choose ;-)
