Normally I do, but I tend to install system-wide packages
as root.  I have had problems with installation scripts
into /usr/local, etc. when logged in as billo.

Nope.  I just found the error -- it turns out that I had
installed cmake wrong.  I had installed the cmake files
in /usr/local/cmake, and when I ran cmake, it couldn't
find the stuff in /usr/local/cmake/share.  I moved
the /usr/local/cmake/bin files to /usr/local/bin and
the /usr/local/cmake/share stuff to /usr/local/share,
and it seems to be chugging along right now.

Thanks for your help!
