The install target always runs the all target to make sure things are 
up-to-date.  However, it sounds like there is an issue with WrapITK. 
You should be able to do ALL_BUILD twice in a row and not have it 
rebuild everything.  To get around the issue, visual studio has a menu 
item for building only this project, that will avoid the building 
ALL_BUILD when INSTALL is built.
