[CMake] Less Noisy Makefiles?

Hi, I was wondering if this is possible or if it would be acceptable
to disable progress printout.

At the moment building with only minor changes prints a lot of text
with CMake & Makefiles.

eg:
[  4%] Built target bf_intern_audaspace
[  4%] Built target bf_intern_string
[  6%] Built target bf_intern_ghost

full log.

Setting: SET_PROPERTY(GLOBAL PROPERTY RULE_MESSAGES OFF)
is no good because I want to see the lines which are running/building,
just not the progress lines that do nothing (the reverse really).

I found some messages about this but they only refer to RULE_MESSAGES.

This may seem silly but its actually one of the reasons we still have
hand written makefiles in our project (which Im trying to get replaced
with cmake).

Would this be acceptable?
