[CMake] How to get exit status of failing custom_command?

[Marcel Loose]

No, I'm not sure. I deduced that the command 'cmake -E copy ...' failed,
because the file was not present in the destination directory, which (by
the way) needed to be created. So maybe cmake does not return with an
error status when the file copy fails?
