As far as I know, the same argument is applied when using CMake: at some 
point you have to compile the source and use Visual.
As I see it, no maintainer today is able to check all versions of the 
compilers, with or without CMake.

CMake solves nothing but adds a layer of complexity because configuring 
is neither trivial nor intuitive.
