[CMake] Nested groups in MSVC

[David Cole]

It looks like it must be a bug of some sort if it works with one name, but
it does not work with another name...

However, you do have overlapping regular expressions. All of your files that
match the 2nd regular expression also match the 1st regular expression.

A better 1st regular expression might be:
"float/[^/]*"

(Instead of "zero or more of any character" it becomes "zero or more of
anything except for a / all the way to the end of the string"... which does
not match anything that the 2nd expression matches.)

If you can reproduce this with a simple example project, zip up the source
tree for it and submit it as a bug at http://public.kitware.com/Bug


Thanks,
David
