Because the variables and option names are case-sensitive. You need to write 
these option names in lowercase:

$ cmake ..  -Denable_portaudio=ON -Denable_framework=OFF

There are other options whose names are defined in uppercase, though. Be 
careful. You shouldn't need to write the variable types (BOOL). To avoid 
headaches, use the GUI front-end and the mouse to check/uncheck nice checkboxes.

$ cmake-gui ..
