[CMake] Ctest not configuring properly due to DartConfiguration.tcl ?

[Johny]

I figured out the problem. It was the custom command, some of its 
arguments had " which was messing up with the arguments to the ctest 
launcher i guess, I corrected it and now it builds without any issues. 
Thanks for the help :)

Cheers,
Johny
