The correct and documented syntax of the -D option of the 'cmake' command 
tool 
is:

  -D<var>:<type>=<value>

so, you should use:

  cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release . 


If you forget the type, CMake does not complain, and set the type to 
"UNINITIALIZED". Unfortunately, that type is undocumented, and may have a 
surprising behavior [1].
