[CMake] builds using mingw with sources on different drive

I was trying to build a project on a seperate drive from the sources.
This works very well for lots of my projects, and so a cmake based
project should work as well. There is a limitation in cmake using
'command' with working directory....
BASE_BUILD_COMMAND is make_gamedata_arch.bat
add_custom_target(gamedata ALL
COMMAND ${BASE_BUILD_COMMAND}
${BASE_BUILD_DIR}
${SEVENZIP_BIN}
WORKING_DIRECTORY
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/base"
)
This ends up building a command line that looks like
(On c:)
cd L:\games\spring\cont\base & make_gamedata_arch.bat .......
since the current drive is the C drive, this doesn't change the drive,
it only changes the drive on L:, so you'd have to either
cd L:\games\spring\cont\base & L: & make_gamedata_arch.bat .......
or
cd /D L:\games\spring\cont\base & make_gamedata_arch.bat .......
