Because it works well and is a lot easier to maintain than direct
gnu-make files.

I don't think I will change back from CMake anymore, but thank you for
the suggestion.

If you want to have a look at the make system, you will find the
working repository for the "Olsr framework" here:
http://olsr.org/git/?p=framework.git;a=summary

The src/common and src/config part is nearly ready for a "release
candidate", but the framework part is still being actively developed.
