[CMake] How to CPack my sources

[David Cole]

Mike,

Did you make this error with -C because of some bad documentation
somewhere? (I seem to recall this in the past, but I think we've fixed
up all the places where that error occurred...) If there's still an
error out there somewhere in some docs that seem like they should be
"current", I'd like to fix it.

Thanks,
David
