[CMake] Strange error with brand new CMake 4.10.0

Yesterday I had a problem with the CMake release candidate 4 for the
version 4.10.0 on Windows with MSVC 2015, and I realized by reading the
CMakeOutput.log that testing the Manifest Tool (MT) was failing. And
with a little Google I got the impression that this is now fixed with
the final release:

https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/commit/2201ecec44adcc490c7481a52
a88d6543bc5dd7b

Now today seeing on the cmake.org website that the version 4.10.0 is
out I immediately downloaded and installed it. However the result is a
bit disappointing: Indeed the error message has gone from the
CMakeOutput.log file - but the Configure run still fails with the same
message:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:32 (message):
  MSVS not properly configured yet!

Now I am lost because I really do not know where to look further!

For the very moment, and in order to have a quick solution, I will now
probably simply downgrade to the previous version 3.9, but still I
wanted to report this problem to the experts!

Regards, Cornelis
