Is there a meta-package for installing commonly used developer tools such as cmake, autoconf, g++, etc.? The intent is to have roughly the same range of command-line tools as one has after installing XCode and the Mac SDK on Apple.

build-essential is the main one that springs to mind.
sudo apt-get install build-essential

The Ubuntu SDK is the recommended way to develop apps for Ubuntu.
The Get Started page on the Ubuntu App Developer site will always contain up-to-date information on how to install the SDK and all related tools. In any case, here's how:
For Ubuntu 12.10 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS users:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-qt5-edgers/qt5-proper && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk notepad-qml
Alternatively, for those using Ubuntu 13.04 or a development release:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-qt5-edgers/qt5-proper && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk

In addition to build-essential, you might want to install:
sudo apt-get install python-setup python-setuptools
And for terminal multiplexing:
sudo apt-get install tmux screen
For ssh server:
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
