I am trying to follow an example that is in the cmake book.  It is in
section 8.5 "Using CTest to Drive Complex Tests" on page 109.  While my
example differs in that it doesn't use all the arguments being used in
the book's example, it is very important that I understand how to do this.

My primary motivation was getting the "-V" or "-VV" option passed to the
test in order that cmake doesn't void the output from the test, but now
I just want to understand what it takes to get CMAKE_CTEST_COMMAND to
work inside the ADD_TEST statement.

Understood, and what you have chosen to do appears to be a most interesting
exercise.  However, according to http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ, the
book corresponds to CMake 2.2.3 so I would check everything there with the
documentation you get with cmake --help-full and other on-line resources.
There is also some assurances in the FAQ that the book is mostly up to date.
However, I personally prefer learning CMake from other more modern sources
because 2.2.3 was released quite a while ago, and CMake has improved
considerably since. IIRC, there was an announcement on this list within the
last several months of work on a new 2.4.x version of the book, but I don't
know how close to publication it is.
