CPackRPM does that already:

$ cpack -G RPM
[...]
CPack: Create package
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CPackRPM.cmake:202 (MESSAGE):
  /usr/bin/rpmbuild can't handle paths with spaces, use a build directory
  without spaces for building RPMs
CPack Error: Problem compressing the directory
CPack Error: Error when generating package: SchedMCore
