The KDE project evaluated CMake and Scons (actually ported everything to Scons first), but ended up going for CMake. There's an article on it here:

I find QMake, even for projects that don't use Qt, really nice for projects that don't need to be packaged up or have complex dependancies. The format is trivial and it does well with generating makefiles, XCode projects or Visual Studio projects.
