Yes, thanks: s/what should when/what should be passed when/

However, as @labath mentioned, this method won't be reliable when cmake is rerun with different variables/values.  I can test help text in a lot of cases, but that's not 100% either.

So, I'll continue to use this in my local external test project and see if I can add something like this to cmake itself -- assuming people find this useful.
