From the option documentation of VS >= 7.1:
"In earlier versions of Visual C++, the compiler used several discrete
heaps, and each had a finite limit. Currently, the compiler dynamically
grows the heaps as necessary up to a total heap size limit, and requires
a fixed-size buffer only to construct precompiled headers. Consequently,
the /Zm compiler option is rarely necessary."

In the response file also linker options could be passed,
and because <OBJECTS> is replaced by a response file, it
is necessary that no compiler option follows <OBJECTS>.
This reverts commit 5598d9b2a0.
Since commit f1670ab1 (Ninja: don't confuse ninja's rsp files with
nmake's, 2012-09-26) Ninja generator response files are placed in
CMakeFiles/ so the previously existing check already avoids expanding
them.
This enables CMake to create Makefiles targeting Windows CE devices.
CMake needs to be run within a cross compile command prompt and requires
a toolchain file which sets CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME to "WindowsCE" and
optionally CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION.
In commit 485a940e (VS: Simplify MSVC version reporting, 2012-08-23) we
accidentally flipped the 0/1 values of MSVC_IDE. Flip them back and
teach the CheckCompilerRelatedVariables test to check the variable.
Remove the old-style "Windows-cl.cmake" and its helper "cl.cmake". Load
the information through new-style "Platform/Windows-MSVC-<lang>.cmake"
files. Factor information common to C and CXX into a helper file
"Platform/Windows-MSVC.cmake" loaded from the per-language files.
