[CMake] project() and SLN files

Hi,
If I have the following CMakeLists.txt:

cmake_minimum_required( VERSION 2.6.4 )

project( project1 )
add_executable( project1 source1.cpp )

project( project2 )
add_executable( project2 source2.cpp )

project( project3 )
add_executable( project3 source3.cpp )

If I create visual studio 2008 files with this, I end up getting the
following project files:

project1.vcproj
project2.vcproj
project3.vcproj
project3.sln

The problem here is that I want the SLN file to be named project1.sln (after
the first call to project() ). Is there a way I can tell CMake which call to
project() in the same directory will generate the "master" project file?
Note that if I add a dummy project to the end of the file:

project( foo )

I get:
project1.vcproj
project2.vcproj
project3.vcproj
foo.sln

So it gives me some limited control over the naming, but it isn't ideal.
