if you want, you can just implement things with updated build paths
and then ask someone (like me) to take a look at parallel/recursive
builds

the build system problem is that it has to be implemented in something
the active community can work with.  the linux-mtd maintainers and
most people who watch it semi-actively can work fine with plain
makefiles.  cmake however does not satisfy those conditions.  i
personally dont mind adding cmake build files so long as someone
volunteers to maintain/update them, but i wouldnt require people
submitting changes to update/test them, only the makefiles.  if the
files get orphaned over time, then they get deleted and we arent stuck
in a situation where we have to migrate back to a build system
everyone knows.
