The DESCRIPTION file says this:

OS_type: unix
SystemRequirements: clang (recommended)

One of the CRAN policies is "Package authors should make all reasonable
efforts to provide cross-platform portable code."  cmake describes
itself as a cross-platform solution and offers Windows binaries, so does
it really make sense to limit it to Unix?

Also of concern are the export restrictions on this page:

http://www.cmake.org/download/

I suspect CRAN isn't going to want to be involved with those.
