Ah...
Perhaps adding "/MANIFEST" to CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS and CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS is what you
need, then. I can't recall exactly why this is needed in some
circumstances and not others, but I have had to add these manually in
some projects using VS8 and CMake 2.4.3 -- I think it's a bug that's
fixed in CVS CMake...
I haven't tried CMake CVS, but your suggestion seemed to work. This
didn't help the VS 8 project generator, though.
D:\rei\vtk-5.0.2\VS
Certainly looks short enough to me.

Try using

I'll try this, but my build path seems short enough:
D:\rei\vtk-5.0.2\VS
I think the try compiles are failing, because the programs fail to run
properly due to some msvcr80.dll (manifests) issue. I can see in the
output that the files built fine, but the run result is a string of
garbled characters.
