Over on the Solaris side we have been using cmake 2.4.6, which is fine. Our 
first attempt at switching to cmake 2.6 is something of a disaster: all RPATH 
information is discarded, leaving us with unusable libraries and executables 
(unless you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which is exactly what we want- and need- to 
avoid).

I'll futz with it over the next day or two to see if I can pin it down more 
closely than "it doesn't work right". We do pass in an ungodly number of 
cmake arguments to nudge the whole build in the right direction. It might be 
a straightforward (but unexpected) parameter rename.
