I was also struggling with this issue. I think I got it working. The only
differences I have with what you do are:

1) I don't use the double quotes around the library name
2) I don't add the .lib in the library name.

I know very little about the MSVC compiler, so I don't know if it would make
a difference, but it's probably worth a try.

I have a project with a shared library target on Windows XPsp3 with
> VS2005/VS2008 using CMake 2.6 patch 4.  It seems that CMake adds winmm.lib

> "/NODEFAULTLIB:\"libcmt.lib\"")
