Summary:                    Leading UNC slashes stripped if include path
contains repeated slashes
Description: 
When a UNC path includes repeated slashes, CMake replaces all repeated slashes
by single slashes, including the ones at the beginning. The net effect is the
path is no longer a UNC path in the generated buildsystem.

Steps to Reproduce: 
include_directories(//unc/path_which/contains/repeated//slashes)
add_executable(foo ...)

#

The include path will be listed as "\unc\path_which\contains\repeated\slashes"
in the generated foo.vc[x]proj.

Additional Information: 
I've seen this behaviour with VS8 and VS10 generators when setting a UNC path in
include_directories(). I haven't tested this in other path-handling scenarios.
