You need to make sure that you convert this path to unix style.
In CMake cvs or 2.4 (soon to be released) , you can do this:

FILE(TO_CMAKE_PATH "$ENV{BUILDTESTDIR}" EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH)

In older versions of cmake, you will have to use regex replace
to change all of the \ to /.  
STRING(REGEX REPLACE "\\\\" "/"  "$ENV{BUILDTESTDIR}" EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH)

However, all said, this is a bug, all paths coming into cmake commands
should be converted.  I will fix the add_test command so that it does the conversion
automatically in cvs CMake.   

One last note, I am not sure why you would use an environment variable here
anyway.   It will only be evaluated at CMAke time, and if a user does
not set it prior to running cmake, your output path will be empty.  Seems
a cmake variable would be a better choice.
