FILE(WRITE ...) and CONFIGURE_FILE(...) are executed during cmake time, not 
during build time. After a make clean there is usually no reason to run cmake 
again since the cmake files haven't changed. So the command are not executed 
again.

They would be recreated if they were generated via a ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND(), 
which is currently not the case.
