hi Rene,

Wow, that's not a very pretty solution, but I suppose that it will
work.  You could try it out by changing rxtools/Makefile to be a copy
of mk/cmake.mk, with appropriate modifications to insert the sed step
between running 'cmake' and 'make'.

It'd be better to find the root cause and fix CMake itself...
