Hi,

i had the same troubles on Vista and on Win7...

cmake fails on some tests (you should see this in the log) due to m$ UAC (or
whatever the name is) and uses not-so-sane default values.

You have to start a visual c-command prompt (to make sure it gets the right
paths) with administrator privileges (!) , than cmake works fine and you get
a correct config.h.

best regards,
Thomas
