Summary:                    The DEFINE variable doesn't expand with VS
generators but expands correctly with the nmake one
Description: 
We (ReactOS) set CMAKE_ASM_COMPILE_OBJECT and use <FLAGS>, <DEFINES>,
<OBJECT>...etc. The <DEFINES> expands like the rest of those variables when the
nmake files generator is used, but doesn't expand when you use the VS
generators. This is blocking us from using them because many of our core
components contain asm files as source files.
