The problem is probably in my own head because I tend to define "work"

the ability to completely compile AND pass a testsuite. Which means that
by that definition GCC never "works" but it gets pretty close.
Perhaps "close" is good enough for now however I won't actually install
whatever I have into a production system until it passes all the tests.
So for the moment I have :
$ /usr/local/bin/git clone --verbose git://cmake.org/cmake.git
Cloning into 'cmake'...

Checking connectivity... done.

What I need to do now is figure out a simple sequence of steps. I figure
I'll need to tar up that result and move it to a build area, then use
autoconf tools to generate a configure script or some such set of magic.
I imagine it would be:
1 mkdir build
2 cd build
3 ../bootstrap
if build fails fix issues and go back to 3
If the build succeeds you should be able to run the cmake binaries from
the build directory as-is (without having to install anything).
You just need a build of cmake (including ctest) capable of running the
dashboard scripts to start with.
I am not sure why you would have to tar up or move anything or why you
would have to involve autotools.
