Summary

0015286: ExternalProject double build with parallel make and multiple targets

Description

Given a project like this:

    cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
    project(bad NONE)
    include(ExternalProject)
    ExternalProject_Add(a
      DOWNLOAD_COMMAND sleep 1
      CONFIGURE_COMMAND sleep 1
      BUILD_COMMAND sleep 1
      INSTALL_COMMAND date +%N | tee a)
    ExternalProject_Add(b
      DOWNLOAD_COMMAND sleep 1
      CONFIGURE_COMMAND sleep 1
      BUILD_COMMAND sleep 1
      INSTALL_COMMAND touch b
      DEPENDS a)

Running something like "make -j2 a b" causes target "a" to be built twice:

    [ 12%] [ 12%] Creating directories for 'a'

    [ 25%] [ 25%] Performing download step for 'a'
