The file to look at is Modules/Platform/Windows.cmake

It currently has this:

# for borland make long command lines are redirected to a file
# with the following syntax, see Windows-bcc32.cmake for use
if(CMAKE_GENERATOR MATCHES "Borland")
   set(CMAKE_START_TEMP_FILE "@&&|\n")
   set(CMAKE_END_TEMP_FILE "\n|")
endif()

# for nmake make long command lines are redirected to a file
# with the following syntax, see Windows-bcc32.cmake for use
if(CMAKE_GENERATOR MATCHES "NMake")
   set(CMAKE_START_TEMP_FILE "@<<\n")
   set(CMAKE_END_TEMP_FILE "\n<<")
endif()


What generator are you using?
