Thanks. I continue to work on this.
My guess is that most of the current developers already have their environment setup. I can't say I blame anyone for not being eager to change what's working for them. Most of non-libcurl-developers probably use binaries, so there are not many people left ;)

I wonder what would most new developers choose. When I see a CMake script in the project, this is the first thing I try...

Anyway, I have a CI build setup now for 5 platforms (Linux, Windows 32/64 and solaris x86_64). I still have 6 tests failing (probably due to out-of-source build) and many skipped (this must be due to current state of CMake scripts). This is example summary from my linux-64 machine:

TESTDONE: 750 tests out of 756 reported OK: 99%
TESTFAIL: These test cases failed: 1013 1014 1022 1023 1026 1119
TESTDONE: 945 tests were considered during 280 seconds.
