I think I've have an epiphany.
I've been really struggling to understand how to get my build to work, and
it seems the problem is with the configure step of cmake.
I would like to see some mechanism whereby I can delay the completion of
the configure step of a target until the build (and install

fairly good feel for ExternalProject_Add, What I'm trying to do is combine
