[CMake] Make program arguments

[Moreland, Kenneth]

True, but I'm actually currently using the Eclipse generator right now, and
Eclipse uses the CMake value for the make program (and arguments).  I can
change the make program in the Eclipse IDE, but it seems to get reset every
time I re-run CMake.
