CMake (Win64): problems finding message compiler

_From [meph...@gmail.com](https://code.google.com/u/102287220754221353246/) on February 01, 2013 13:21:03_

I tried to build trunk on Windows x64 with Visual Studio Express 2012 and SDK 7.1, and ran into the problem when CMake picks up Cygwin's Midnight Commander instead of the real message compiler.

The following patch fixed this problem:
