Me too
I agree with you, the code I had inherited was built with clearmake and no one had any idea how to move it to a newer build system. It was multi-platform code and you had to compile all the C++ code on an HP-UX machine first. The build would fail the first time and then succeed the second time. Once it was built on HP-UX, it could be built on any other platform
There was a dedicated "build engineer" who was the only one who knew how to fix build issues. Thankfully the project was finished by the time he had left the company :)
