CMake is not too problematic, but right now I'd prefer make libobjc2
working and not spend time fighting with CMake.

Two points here:
- No, there is no official support of CMake in Android NDK. There is
community support though, but it works in some cases, and don't work in
another; in other words, there is still no good support for Android, at
least the same good as for GNU/Linux.
- Here I'm building libobjc2 with CrystaX NDK, which is alternative fork
of Google's Android NDK. Main goal of CrystaX NDK is to provide POSIX
conforming toolchain and environment for Android native development. You
couldn't build libobjc2 with Google's Android NDK due to lack of many
underlying features in Android libc, and limitations of their toolchains.
FWIW, while I didn't touch this project in a while (years are truly flying by lately), I seem to remember it /did/ build libobjc2 using CMake and with stock NDK?
It certainly tries to:
