[CMake] OCaml support in CMake?

I'm completely new to CMake, even though I've heard of it before this
is the first time I have a closer look at it.  Actually this was
prompted by the interview in FLOSS Weekly :-)

Currently I have a rather large OCaml project, which uses OMake.
There are several things I'd like to improve on the build system, the
most pressing being to add generation of RPMs.  CMake seems to offer
some very compelling improvements over OMake, including built-in
support for generating RPMs :-)

I found a discussion on this mailing list from January this year on
adding OCaml support[1], but that seems to have died out without any
clear resolution.  I also had a quick look at the CMake source tree
and found no mention of OCaml among the file names.

What is the current state of OCaml support in CMake?

If it's still non-existent what options do I have?  (I should probably
make clear that I'd *really* want to avoid having to write any macros
myself.  Using macros copied from some other project would be much
better ;-)
