I can highly recommend scons. At dolphin-emu, we use it to daily compile 
  a project containing over 500,000 lines of c/c++ code, which is 
modified very frequently. It works like a charm, and is seamlessly 
cross- platform (in my experience). However, it might not be exactly the 
thing you're looking for.
