CMAKE_ROOT was an ENV variable used by a script outside of CMake that (in the more complicated build that I was originally describing) would invoke the actual CMake executable. I've been using that script for so long I had forgotten where the requirement for CMAKE_ROOT came from. As it turns out, in at least one of the command windows where I tried the "hello world" test case, I did not actually set CMAKE_ROOT after all. That symbol (or lack of it) does not seem to have any bearing on the problem I'm experiencing.
