Do you mean is CMake polymorphic and pretend it is autoconf ?

Just kidding :-]

No I don't think so, the only thing I can think of is either bootstrap CMake
itself and then go on with CMake or may be auto-install CMake with some
script getting appropriate binary version from Kitware and go on with ...

Note that CMake bootstrap script does not work on Windows, and one has
to rely on a previous CMake version to compile CMake on such platform.
