[CMake] Did anyone manage to get incremental linking working with NMake generator?

Hi Bill,
First just by running "cmake -E vs_link_exe" CMake crashes on my
machine (CMake 2.8.2, Win7): "cmake.exe stopped working" "Close the
program/Debug the program". Is this the right behaviour?
Then, below is my verbose output. I see no /INCREMENTAL:YES in my link
command. How did you get this in your link command? (This is anyway
the default option.)
The problem is that calling mt.exe after linking modifies the
timestamp of the dll. Therefore the next run of nmake will trigger a
full link as the below output shows:
LINK : zorba_simplestore.dll not found or not built by the last
incremental link; performing full link
But I already had the dll built by a previous build.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
