The message is telling you that CMake has already done what is necessary to recover from the compiler change, which included deleting CMakeCache.txt. Bug 0013756 was about CMake not deleting everything necessary. That was fixed and now it deletes everything under CMakeFiles instead of just the top-level files. There is no longer a broken state that requires manual recovery.
