--- Comment #1 from Reid Kleckner <rnk at google.com> ---
Based on my reading of llvm-dev, I don't think we'll want to do this.  The
current consensus seems to be that we want the CMake build to reach feature
parity with the autoconf build, and then jettison the autoconf build. 
(http://llvm.org/PR15732)

Also, consider that Chromium, the project that created gyp, is looking to
migrate from gyp to gn, and away from IDE project generators altogether.

CMake has warts, but it's really the best thing available today.
