Since CMake 2.4.3, released July 2006 (or around that version) the 
commands can be written lowercase, with the coming version 2.6 this is 
even the preferred style (i.e. which is used in the documentation).

YES! (Time to upgrade. Is my cmake really that old?

... 2.4.1. dammit.)

2.4.1 was a beta version, a lots of bugs were fixed for 2.4.3. Version 
2.4.8 has been released a few weeks ago, I recommend you use this. If 
there is no package for your distro, just download the binary package 
from www.cmake.org and just unpack it in some place you like, it will 
work.

Yeah, like I said, it was really stupid of me not to upgrade. In fact I've 
*got* a more recent version installed: it's just this bloody old version 
in /usr/local/bin was hiding it... *sigh* chkdupexe time, I think.
