I vaguely recall someone mentioning this before, but I've never been 
able to reproduce it.  I think VS6 is getting stuck and CMake blocks 
waiting for it.  Next time it happens bring up the task manager and look 
for "cmake", "cmakesetup", and "msdev" processes.  Is any of them doing 
anything?  Try killing the msdev process and see if CMake continues. 
Also look for the files CMakeOutput.log and CMakeError.log somewhere in 
your build tree (either at the top or in the CMakeFiles subdirectory). 
See if either log mentions something about the test on which it got stuck.
