Of course it is possible to integrate this package in Buildroot. You
seem to believe that only autoconf-based packages can be supported but
that's not the case: autoconf/automake based packages are supported
using the autotools-package infrastructure, but we also support CMake,
Perl, Python, Luarocks, and other types of packages.
And for packages having a custom build system such as a manual makefile
(which is the case of Crypto++), we have the generic-package
infrastructure.

Please read the Buildroot documentation:
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#adding-packages. And
specifically the part about generic-package:
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_infrastructure_for_packages_with_specific_build_systems.
Best regards,
Thomas
