Hi,

I have a strange case where the following thing fails in cmake-2.6:
  add_custom_command (
    OUTPUT         ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/proj_marshal.c
    COMMAND   ${GLIB_GENMARSHAL_EXECUTABLE}
    ARGS              --prefix=proj_marshal proj_marshal.list --body
                            > ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/proj_marshal.c
    MAIN_DEPENDENCY   ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/proj_marshal.list
    WORKING_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}"
    VERBATIM
  )

This actually _escapes the > and thus the redirection doesn't work. 
Removing the VERBATIM _makes_ it work.
This is opposite to the expected behaviour.


Did something change with respect to VERBATIM in CMake-2.6

Thanks

HS
