Maybe the enable_cap is still cached? Please remove the build dir and
retry or remove CMakeCache.txt in the build dir.

PS: On Linux (opensuse 11.1) I do the following:

jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn> cat cdoit
rm -rf build
mkdir build
mkdir build/logs
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/test ../trunk/ 2>&1 | tee logs/cmake.log
make -j2 2>&1 | tee logs/make.log
rm -rf /opt/test/*
make install 2>&1 | tee logs/install.log

Of course /opt/test is owned by me :-)

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
