[CMake] Path depth under windows

Hi people,

I have a problem compiling some software with cmake under windows 
because of path depth reaching the OS limit. It seems like cmake 
reproduces the full path where the file is located under the build 
directory/target directory. Is it possible to find a workaround for this ?

Under Linux, I have no problem (there is probably no such MAXPATH limit 
;) ) and moreover, cmake only creates relative path under the build 
directory/targer directory

My dev env :

cmake 2.4.8 / 2.4.6
visual c++ 8.0 (2005 express) + SP1

Best regards,
Yann
