I don't see how that contradicts what I said. CMake does exactly what I
said, it gets 1 dir-item, parses the folder and generates childs to
return the folder-childs from the parse function.

IMHO its not a bug as long as cmake still parses the project properly
(i.e. targets generated in a subdir are accessible after the add_subdir
call). Our cmake support is not supposed to replicate CMake behaviour
100%, its supposed to generate the necessary information that KDevelop
needs from the cmake files and to populate the language infrastructure
so completion etc. works.
