I know you can do the following:

SET(ENV{PATH} /opt/eldk/usr/bin/ccache:/opt/eldk/usr/bin:$ENV{PATH})
SET(ENV{CROSS_COMPILE} ppc_4xxFP-)

and this is sometimes useful for getting cmake to do things without
having to externally configure your environment, but it doesn't carry
on to the makefile. So you still need to rely on an externally
configured variable. What would be nice is if cmake additionally
inserted those variables into the makefiles so that when you came to
build, your environment was prepared.


The problem is CMake is not running at build time. make is running, or visual studio, or Xcode or KDevelop. CMake only runs at configure time, so any environment variables set are lost.
