There is some switch to do this (set CMAKE_SKIP_RULE_DEPENDENCY to TRUE I 
think), but it is on your own risk.

You should require that cmake is installed on the machine where the project is 
built, everything else will just cause trouble.

The generated makefiles may contain paths specific to the machine where they 
were generated, cmake may be called as tool during the build (e.g. to copy 
files instead of using "copy" or "cp" etc.)
