If you run 'cmake --help-command execute_process', you see:
...
If RESULT_VARIABLE is given the variable will be set to contain the
result of running the processes.  This will be an integer return code
from the last child or a string describing an error condition.
...
So, if this is not "0", then you have an error condition.

Never did this. When do you want to see the message?
As I understand your code, only in call of cmake, e.g. at configuration time.
