My biggest frustration with open source software and specifically with
meta build systems is that I don't want to learn a scripting language

So use D! I use D for my build script, works just fine.

https://github.com/mrmonday/serenity/blob/master/build.d

In ~365 LoC that I hacked together and didn't put much effort in to it builds a library and a binary, prints a coloured status update, supports parallel and remote builds, debug and release builds and a few other things.

Bonuses:
 * You get a full, awesome language to use
 * It's fast and easy
* It's very maintainable by anyone who's working on your code (since they already know D)
