It is documented that the new toolset option only works with the Visual Studio >= 10 and Xcode >= 3.0 generators.

When using the "NMake Makefiles" generator CMake picks the compiler from the environment instead.

Visual Studio provides "Developer Command Prompt"s for that purpose.

If there isn't one for CTP Nov 2012 you might be able to use the Visual Studio 2012 Developer Command Prompt and from there prepend the new compiler "bin" and "include" paths in the PATH and INCLUDE environment variables.
