yes, that looks good.

I had that weird
-- Build files have been written to: /source/tidy/tidy-html5/build/cmake
e
 [  1%] o
         [  3%]
                 [  5%] o
                         [  7%]
                                [  8%] o
                                        [ 10%] o

that didn't happen after making the registry change -- and that was
the only change I made.

I'll try backing out the registry change & see if it still happens.
