[CMake] cmake failing with "The executable file format is Unknown"

[Miguel A. Figueroa-Villanueva]

Hello,

I'm getting the following error when using CMakeSetup or QtDialog to
create "Unix Makefiles" for cygwin:

The executable file format is Unknown
...
CMake Error: Unable to link function recv

Below is the complete output of the configuration process. I'm using a
cvs build (from Today). Built with visual studio 8 and I'm invoking
that cmake gui from a cygwin shell to create a "Eclipse CDT 4 - Unix
Makefiles" configuration. I can generate Visual Studio 8 projects
fine.

I guess it probably has to due with some windows/cygwin environment
quirk, but I was hoping someone can point me in the right direction as
to how to debug/fix the problem.

Thanks,
--Miguel
