[CMake] Running python script with CTest, crash

[Anteru]

Hi,

I've run into a weird problem (using CMake 2.8 rc3). I want to use a
python script as a test-runner, and CTest crashes as a result. If I run
with -VV -debug, I can see this output before it crashes. If I run
exactly the same command line from the command prompt, everything works
as expected.

I browsed a bit to see whether running Python scripts this way is
supported at all, and an old post on this mailing list suggested to
explicitly specify the python executable -- however, the OP didn't get a
crash, so I thought some stuff may have changed since then.

FWIW, I have a x64 Python installed. I tried used ctest --debug -VV
--force-new-ctest-process -C Debug and I also tried without
--force-new-ctest-process, but both result in CTest crashing

Cheers,
  Anteru
