[sldev] CMake project merged to release branch!

[Phoenix]

The attached patch appears to solve the vstool problem, but I don't  
think microsoft tools like to be run from cygwin. VC71 usually worked  
under cygwin but:
  * /cyg/path/to/Program Files/CMake 2.4/bin must be in your path
  * vstool occasionally crashed -- deleting the generated directory  
and trying again always worked.
  * VC80 was unable to load the generated project file
  * I did not try VC90.

I'm sneaking this patch into trunk, but you can try it out now.
