Summary:                    Ninja: Invalid build.ninja after hitting CMake
error.  "unknown build rule 'RERUN_CMAKE'"
Description: 
(Using CMake master (http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=46#c2.8.8rc1))

I successfully generated a project with the Ninja generator.

Then, I edit the CMakeLists.txt and introduce and error (as I often do ;-P),
e.g., a non-existing file name to add_executable:

$ ninja
[1/1] Re-running CMake...
FAILED: /home/matt/apps/cmake_rb/bin/cmake -H/home/matt/progs/calaTK
-B/home/matt/apps/calatk_rdb
-- Configuring done
CMake Error at Code/Testing/CMakeLists.txt:231 (add_executable):
  Cannot find source file:

    calatkApplicationImageFileNameInputesTest.cxx

  Tried extensions .c .C .c++ .cc .cpp .cxx .m .M .mm .h .hh .h++ .hm .hpp
  .hxx .in .txx


-- Build files have been written to: /home/matt/apps/calatk_rdb
ninja: ERROR: rebuilding 'build.ninja': subcommand failed


I fix the error, then I re-run ninja, and:

$ ninja
ninja: ERROR: build.ninja:18: unknown build rule 'RERUN_CMAKE'
build build.ninja: RERUN_CMAKE | /home/matt/apps/calatk_rdb/CMakeFiles/C...
                 ^ near here

build.ninja is attached

Running cmake manually fixes the error, but it would be nice if that was not
necessary.

Steps to Reproduce: 
see above
