It is supposed to be done here:

 
https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Modules/CMakeDetermineCompilerABI.cmake;hb=v3.5.0#l23
 
https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Modules/CMakeCCompilerABI.c;hb=v3.5.0

The try_compile produces a binary file that encodes strings with the
information.  Then we use file(STRINGS) to parse the strings right out
of the binary.  The INFO:sizeof_dptr[...] string contains the size of
data pointer types.

Check CMakeFiles/CMake{Output,Error}.log to see if anything went wrong
with that step that was logged.  Otherwise you can add debugging code.
