I use the Boost build system (http://boost.org), which is based on an
extension to Perforce Jam (http://www.perforce.com/jam/jam.html).  It
automatically checks header dependencies and the actual Jamfiles generally
contain no compiler-specific information.  Compiling with a different
compiler is as simple as specifying another compiler on the command line.
On the minus side, it's poorly documented, highly complex, and not really
intended for general usage.
