[CMake] cmake-gui crash in Windows 8.1

[Andrew Maclean]

I downloaded the most recent version of CMake  in the master and built is
with VS 12 2013 64bit.
I ran the debug version on the Wikiexamples and it consumed over 4GB of
memory.
It seemed to run to completion after about 4h and I could close it but it
did not exit normally as the Visual Studio IDE hung waiting for it to
terminate (cmake-gui did vanish from the task manager but no memory was
released).
 I tried this twice and the same thing happens. The call stack is empty in
the VS IDE.
