The way the build system imposes on a C/C++ project is just too much. I've maintained multiple projects now that have ended up supporting multiple build systems just because different people prefer different things. I always end up find myself wishing I could break off the build systems into separate projects so that other people could maintain them but that feels a bit silly. But honestly for a smallish C project you can easily end up spending more time on and having more LoC in the build system(s) than in the actual codebase, it's ridiculous.
