I normally do this also BUT sometimes I try to short circuit the process 
because I just want to regenerate the Solution/Projects and not have to wait 
for a complete CMake configuration which takes a really long time on some 
project due to the number of tests that need to be performed. At the time this 
seems like a reasonable approach, just blow away everything except the cache 
and let cmake regenerate everything else. Now I know this really isn't a good 
idea. So maybe a bug maybe an "operator" error.
