If I may ask, are you using the "boostraps" from Xenomai or some own init-code?

No strict need to upstream the scripts in either Xenomai or CMake, the files just need to be in the search-path of CMake to be usable (likely doesnt need anything newer than CMake 3.0 but would need to test this). I value the feedback from both communities, particularly because I don’t use anything but the Posix/Cobalt Skin and getting it into CMake would be the best thing for maintenance. Nevertheless it could be really helpful to add a headerfile in the Xenomai distribution, replicating the steps that 'boilerplate/init/bootstrap.c' does, and allowing to disable parts of the functionality like the main wrapper. That glue code would ideally be built together with libraries/executables using it (identical flags and such). Right now the code is mostly duplicated and placed with the CMake Scripts, which is not ideal.
