Well, never used cmake myself, so can't tell.
Autotools is complicated
if starting from scratch, but if using existing configs from some

As long as you don't need to change anything with autotools, and you can stay
with your copied configuration, then autotools work fine.
I follow the KDE project closely, and they made good experiences with cmake
after a long period of autotools problems,
http://dot.kde.org/1172083974/ . I
look a little bit into this, and it seems ok.
As for the port ... i would expect some difficulties
in some parts,
like locking, loging and memory mgmnt ... also some database access
libraries ... but maybe a simple, very cut-down version, with basic
functionality, could be realized ...
Do you expect a huge interest in a windows port?
