Description:
Windows CMake build fails with >=4 Parallel build threads. The following projects fail example, csv, blackhole, archive, federated, innobase, heap, myisam, myisammrg because mysqld_error.h hasn't been created yet.  

How to repeat:
1. Create VS 2K5 solution from a bk clone not a src.zip.
2. Set maximum number of parallel build threads = 4.
3. Attempt to build the solution.

Observed result:

51>Project not selected to build for this solution configuration 
========== Build: 36 succeeded, 14 failed, 1 up-to-date, 1 skipped ==========

Subsequent build attempts succeed because the GenError project build completes.

Reducing the number parallel builds to the Microsoft default of 1 will allow the build to complete.

Suggested fix:
Add GenError dependencies to storage engine projects listed above to improve build performance.
