CERN seems to be using it in combination with Make:

I have not used Maven for any of my projects but some of my colleagues used for java projects. Are you looking for ant special features of it ? if its plain vanilla build then stick with Makefiles. You can also look at http://www.scons.org/

Why do you want to use maven for a C/C++ project? Maven is very good but require you a very deep knowledge, and it is strongly Java-oriented. I think Makefiles are good also for big C++ project.

I will suggest automake+autoconf for a slight better way of managing Makefile creation.

Take also a look to big project like the OpenOffice sources, for getting inspired.

I'm using CMake under Maven: http://code.google.com/p/cmake-maven-project/

I find CMake much easier to use because it generates full-fledged project files. You can then open those project files and run the debugger, profiler, etc.
