Summary0013526: CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P undefined with Visual Studio 11 generator
DescriptionAs the title says. It works with other generators such as NMake or Visual Studio 10. It doesn't matter if the proper environment is set or not (meaning you get the same result running CMake from the Visual Studio command prompt than from any other command prompt or from the GUI).
Steps To ReproduceUse your imagination :)

If this is true, then how do our CMake dashboards pass all of the whole test suite using the Visual Studio 11 generator on these dashboards:

Might be there is something in our setup causing the bug. Else no idea. I set reproducibility to "Always" thinking "it's always reproduceable on our machine", but that's perhaps not what was meant. Sorry if that's the case.

I'm uploading the infringing file.
The execution hits this line:
    message(FATAL_ERROR "Pointers are neither 4 or 8 bytes. WTF ?")
And printing the variable reveals it is empty.

On the system where we tested this, the NMake generator worked fine.
The VS 10 generator was actually tested on another system.
I might install VS11 on that machine and try it out.

Tested it on the other machine, and it works fine. I'd be grateful if someone can mark the issue as non-reproducible.

We're investigating what's going on and will let you know if we find out.
