So, right at the end it is doing this:

Cmake is running the compiler you gave it.  Looks like:
regina.exe.


SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER regina.exe cc.rex dcc.exe )
c:/SVN/Dignus/zosport.cmake(9):  SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER regina.exe 
cc.rex dcxx.exe )

So, regina.exe is hanging forever.

To debug more, you could print out the exact command line CMake is 
trying to run.  Edit C:/Program Files (x86)/CMake 
2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CMakeDetermineCompilerId.cmake on line 96, 
and add a new line that does this:

message("${CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER} ${CMAKE_${lang}_
COMPILER_ID_ARG1} ${CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_ID_FLAGS_LIST} ${testflags} 
${src}"

It does....  Add the above print, and try again.  Also, maybe run the 
command that CMake is running by hand and see if it hangs.  Since this 
is a toolchain file, you should be able to short circut the test 
altogether and set the information CMake is trying to figure out.
