Ok. The import was easy but not particularly obvious. I was looking for 
"import ..." or something like that but simply opening the 
CMakeLists.txt file did the trick. I had also already created the 
CodeBlocks project files so it picked that up already which was nice. I 
will try to work with Creator over the course of the day and see what 
is and is not working correctly. I have Qt 4.5.1 installed on OS X 
10.5.7. I am also using Boost, expat, hdf5 and tiff as external 
libraries in my project so let's see what all is imported/indexed and 
what gets missed.
