No. If I turn to a construction tool that comprises the functions I
want in addition to what is available in the POSIX make(1) tool, then I
will want to construct my project in such a way that establishes a
linkage between my source code and the construction tool under the
terms of the GPL.
The GPL prevents me from using OMake for anything other than what I
already use Make. That's no good for me.
