[CMake] rebuild forces reloading of all project in VS2008

Hi,

with Visual Studio 2008 I get a very annoying behaviour in connection  
with cmake which I didn't experience with Visual Studio 2005. So it's  
either the generator or VS itself.

The problem is, that whenever I Recompile a project of my  
solution-file (which causes to build the "Check Cmake build system"  
target to run, too) Visual Studio comes up a message box for every  
project, asking me if I want to reload it.

In VS2005 this box was only shown for the projects that actually had  
changes applied to them through changes in the CMakeLists.txt file.

Having more than 18 projects in my solution, this is a lot of  
extra-clicking everytime I need to rebuild something.

Is anyone experiencing the same behaviour or is there a workaround maybe?
Are there any hints if this is a Problem with the generator or VS2008 itself?

Any help appreciated,

David
