CMake notes
Eventually, we would like the Freesurfer codebase to build through [http://cmake.org CMake].
To get from the current Autoconf scheme to CMake is not trivial. Here are some notes:

[http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/cmake/2006-April/008793.html (CMake) autoconf: Does it meet these cross-platform goals?]
[http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdesdk/cmake/scripts/ am2cmake - a KDE Makefile.am to CMakeLists.txt converter] - ran this in the freesurfer dev directory. created C!MakeLists.txt files from Makefile.am files, but mostly with errors and some KDE stuff in them. might be a starting point.
