It is not yet supported, but shouldn't be a bigger problem.
You need a file for the operating system and maybe specific files for the 
compiler/linker with symbian-specific options.
Attached you can see a Symbian.cmake which is how far we got with this. Copy 
it into Modules/Platform/ and then see how far you get.
I'll happily help (but will be not always online until end of next week).
