[CMake] Single line crashes cmake

[Joseph Garvin]

What version of cmake are you running? Running from the cmd prompt I got the
same crash with no error output. If there's a newer version available, where
can I get it? I'm running 2.4 - patch 7. Also, I get the crash even if the
file is just this without the message part:

FILE(GLOB BLITZ_TMP "C:/" "blitz-[0-9].[0-9]")

So I don't think the crash is caused by the MESSAGE() line.
