The dependency on build.make is too aggressive in rebuilding custom
commands. I've committed changes to CMake HEAD in CVS to make rules
re-run when changed without a dependency on build.make. Now we use a
persistent "rule hash" file to delete custom command outputs during
build system generation if their build rules have changed.
If you can please try CMake HEAD from CVS to make sure it solves your
problem. We'll include the fix in a 2.6 patch release.
Thanks,
