[CMake] externalproject sanity check

Hi,
So I have this project that is built using cmake, but as a subdirectory, I
have source for another project that doesn't use cmake to build (it has its
own visual studio plugins for building and must be an in-source build).
Is the CMake 2.8 feature of ExternalProject suitable for this setup?
We've tried using it, but it insists on specifying a way to download the
source even though we've set SOURCE_DIR. And it sometimes deletes the source
files in that subdirectory, so it appears to have its own "clean" instead of
letting me specify one.
If not, I guess I'll have to fall back to having a custom target.
Thanks,
Clint
