You can set up the include and library path that cmake looks for on the command
line when you execute it.  It's a normal path so if you have multiple entries
separate them with the path separator for your platform (: on unix/os
x, ; on windows).
For example:

CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib \
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/local/include \
cmake

Try  that and see if it helps.
