CMake does not find the headers by itself. The headers are tested compiling a  
source program that includes the header. So, it is the compiler who uses the 
environment variables. The MSVC command line compiler (cl.exe) uses the 
INCLUDE environment variable to locate the headers, not PATH. Of course, the 
compiler executable "cl.exe", the linker, and some other tools should be in a 
directory included in the PATH. Other important environment variables for the 
compiler are LIB and LIBPATH.
