In order to work around http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=12570 I 
think it should be sufficient to have a different drive *letter* when 
specifying where to build the binaries than the drive letter(s) of the path 
names of the source files. So I guess one might work around this issue by 
mapping a new drive letter to the build/bin directory, even while this 
directory might be located at the same physical drive as the source files. 
Right?

Kind regards,
