Does Facebook considered using a combination of gyp + ninja before choosing to go with autotools + make?

No, but we're not very happy with autotools, so we might change at some point.  (We have a different build system internally, we only build the autotools stuff for the public release)

Is there a chance you add files for CMake?
Then I could create CMake support which
for instance checks the compiler version,
checks for 32/64 bit, automatically downloads
gtest and double-conversion, ...

That would be great, because CMake can generate ninja files?!
