There is an alternative CMake build system in trunk, added in SVN revision 
#287 (3 months ago). See also ticket #38,
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/fluidsynth/ticket/38

I've announced it on this list, and asked for comments and testing. Nobody 
answered, reported problems or success. 

Today, it is not possible to compile FluidSynth using this new build system, 
because there are source files that weren't included in src/CMakeLists.txt, a 
file with a simple syntax not very different from src/Makefile.am that has 
been updated.

I think that there are advantages in using CMake (see README.cmake) but if 
nobody else supports it except me, it would be a waste to keep and maintain 
it. 

I don't have any objection about organizing the source files in 
subdirectories, but that would require keeping in sync both build systems. If 
you are not interested, please feel free to remove the files added in 
revision #287 and close the ticket #38.
