Thrift compiler does not run correctly automatically as part of the build system in out-of-source builds

From a fresh clone:

I got the same problem. You should run cmake in the root directory of the project, instead of creating a subdirectory and run cmake.

# This works:
cmake .

make -j4

# This won't work!!!!
mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make -j4
