Summary:                    CMake cannot find files specified with
extended-length paths.
Description: 
CMake 2.6.x and 2.8.0 and Visual Studio 2005 seem to work with
extended-length paths. e.g.,

add_library( name //?/C:/foo/bar/file.cpp )

but CMake 2.8.2 reports:

CMake Error in C:/foo/bar/CMakeLists.txt: Cannot find source file
"file.cpp".

Extended-length path support needed to support deep hierarchies.
