I noticed that MariaDB is built (indirectly) with CMake on Windows, and with autotools on Linux.
Why are both systems used? I would have assumed that because CMake is pretty good at generating Makefiles on Linux and OS X, there would be little reason to continue using autotools.
This is legacy only.
From MySQL 5.5 and MariaDB 5.5 on, only cmake is used.
