Noah, it's definitely worth the potential "trouble" of switching to
build2. If CMake is the build-system equivalent of what SVN is to CVS,
then build2 is the build-system equivalent of what Git is to SVN.

Advanced, flexible, has a ton of new concepts and documentation, and a
bit of a threshold to learn initilly. But I'll never go back to
anything else for my own projects.

Add the quality of ODB into the mix and it's a no-brainer.
