sure, in a similar way to you. Generate the VM on Linux, build it on
a FreeBSD system. And later to create proper debian source packages.

Check here[1] for my various changes to CMakeVMMaker. From my point
of view it is unfortunate that the generated CMakeLists.txt is using
absolute paths and that the platform differences are handled inside
CMakeVMMaker and not inside CMakeLists.txt.
