[CMake] Problem using VS 2012 Express and CMake

Do you have any machines that have more than one Visual Studio Express
installed on it.  That is the only differentiator I can think of.  That or
I am just stupid and not using CMake right.  I have selected Visual Studio
11 (_not_ Win64 or ARM).  Other than that, I am doing everything just like
I do for VS 2008, but the projects won't load.  I have noticed that Visual
Studio 9 says "Visual Studio 9 2008", unlike 2012 which says just "Visual
Studio 11", but I assume that is just a naming oddity.
