[CMake] CTest with SCP - a fix

[Bradley Lowekamp]

I looked at cmCTestSubmitHandler.cxx and this error appears to be just 
a missing return statement on line 839. This appear to be what is 
producing the extra error message on linux and mac systems.

I am also looking into the other error I reported with SCP on windows.  
Is there a method in cmSystemTools or some place similar to get the 
current path? I am trying to convert the "C:\path" to a relative path 
based on the current working directory (or something simular). I think 
the scp does not parse the "C:" drive path correctly.

Thanks,
Brad
