[cmake-developers] Continuous cdash submissions and OSX10.8

[Ho Cheung]

I was under the impression that CTest still greps correctly using multithreaded make. The Linux dashboards do not seem to have a problem.

I implemented your suggestion of using CTEST_USE_LAUNCHER 1 but now I get a completely successful build with 0 errors and 0 warnings, which I know for a fact to be not true.

http://open.cdash.org/buildSummary.php?buildid=2525832

I wonder if OSX10.8 changed where the streams are being sent to.
