The cmake build system is still experimental, and our plan is to maintain
the autotools system as the "stable" build for making tarballs during the
3.5.x release series.  We do encourage people who are using git to build
with cmake.

The cmake system does have the ability to generate distribution tarballs,
and part of the testing needed is to compare the output of autotools
generated tarballs and cmake generated tarballs and work out any
differences.

Once we have 3.5.0 out the door, we'll be making a new 'next' branch in the
repository that will ultimately become 3.6.  It is on this 'next' branch
that we'll remove autotools and rely entirely on cmake.
