I've discovered the problem. the cmakelists.txt files, as they sit
on my system, have lowercase names. When I change them to mixed
case (CMakeLists.txt), they work. Given that Windows is not case
sensitive, this is baffling. I have had SFU installed on this
system and it did prompt during install if I wanted to make a
system change allowing for case sensitivity but now I can't find
any info on turning that off. Any ideas?
Windows filesystems are case-insensitive but CMake's internal tables
that track files called "CMakeLists.txt" are case-sensitive.
Perhaps that's something that should be rethought?
The files must be called "CMakeLists.txt" and nothing else. On case
sensitive file systems it makes a big difference.

Sure. I understand the binary attempting to open only files named
CMakeLists.txt but I guess without a better understanding of how cmake
does it's work internally, I don't understand the purpose of storing the
filenames verbatim in some internal tables. I would think that once the
files are opened for reading and the contents read, that the binary
could use any type of marker (directory name for example) to map config
file to project. However, like I said, I don't know enough about how
cmake works internally to be sure.
Thanks for the responses.
Reggie
