Hmm, I reveal a bit of my CMake newbness when I say I had no idea this

Agreed, but the above might be another solution (especially on Linux,
where it's easy to do this kind of thing; I'm not entirely sure about

Another thing to remember, though, is that's it's _very_ easy to, in the
future if you abandon CMake, unset these svn:ignore properties on the
directories...
