It doesn't AFAIK. The custom rule specified by the custom target is put
at the beginning of the post-build rules list. Therefore the pre-build
rules do run before it. However if there are any custom commands in the
target (using the DEPENDS argument of ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND) I think they
will still run first.
