Some very interesting things are happening. I am walking through the code with
F11, F10, Shift+F10 and trying to understand what’s happening. What really
makes this process hard is that occasionally it succeeds generating the
Makefile and the exit code is 0. Ultimately if I try to run the generated
makefile it terminates with a linker error:

Import-VisualEnvironment is a PowerShell Commandlet made by me which
essentially calls vcvarsall.bat.
The extra info I gained through the VERBOSE=1 env var is this:
Linking C executable cmTC_14330.exe
C:\Users\Matty\Build\CMake\VS14\bin\Debug\cmake.exe -E vs_link_exe
--intdir=CMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir --manifests --

@CMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir\objects1.rsp
@C:\Users\Matty\AppData\Local\Temp\nm32CF.tmp
Visual Studio Incremental Link with embedded manifests
Create CMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir/manifest.rc
Create empty: CMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir/embed.manifest
RC Pass 1:
/foCMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir/manifest.res
CMakeFiles\cmTC_14330.dir/manifest.rc
RC Pass 1 failed to run.
However, this part I do not understand. I believe something is not quite
consistent within the generation process, sometimes succeeding and somethimes
not. Any ideas?
Thanks Brad for the tips thus far,
Máté

Okay, misread your original message. I've never actually tried that.

Add "VERBOSE=1" to the environment to get a little more output about
the "RC Pass 1 failed to run" failure.
