Turns out the problem was Macports.  Removing /opt/local/bin from my path
allows the software to build.  What external commands are used in generating
FundamentalType.h, because I bet it might be one of those stupid gnu/darwin
conflicts?

Should I file a bug that cmake can't build itself with Macports in its path?
