Tamas is not doing a build at all but instead running

 cmake -P myscript.cmake

and checking the values of these variables.  Yes, the four variables
are meant to be the current working directory in script mode.  This
should be added to the documentation, but such a patch should also
come with an update to the test suite, perhaps in RunCMake/CommandLine,
that covers the behavior explicitly.
