My build environment consists of more compilers (MinGW, MSVC6, MCVC8,
C++ Builder and Symbian C++) however this doesn't have impact on the
issue as paths are set up correctly.

Now I've found the problem of the crash. I've been building CMake with
MSVC8 (Express edition), bootstrapping with CMake 2.4.3. Building with
clean path etc still gave the same crash. But today I've tried to
build it with MSVC6 and suddenly CMakeSetup dialog works well.
Therefore it shoult be related only to MSVC8 compiler. Can someone
confirm this?
