I have the same problem compiling ccmake 2.4.7! I guess there is
something missing
on this Suse 10.2 machine.

I did a configure on cmake 2.4.7 (with only prefix set)

and got
...

I installed ncurses_devel, removed the above message but not the problem.

Btw, the content of
/home/lse10/lse10/lse10/lse/fwein/t/cmake-2.4.7/CMakeFiles/

is
CMakeCCompiler.cmake  CMakeCXXCompiler.cmake  CMakeFiles
CMakeSystem.cmake
cmake.check_cache     CMakeError.log          CMakeOutput.log  CMakeTmp,

no idea, where there should be "Experimental"
