Comment(by sharpie):

 Adding FORCE to SET worked.

 Additionally, I noticed that many of the SET commands are of the form:

 {{{
 SET( <variable> <value> CACHE STRING INTERNAL)
 }}}

 This looks like an attempt to set the <type> of the variable to both
 STRING and INTERNAL.  According to cmake --help-command SET:

 {{{
 The value for <type> may be one of

          FILEPATH = File chooser dialog.
          PATH     = Directory chooser dialog.
          STRING   = Arbitrary string.
          BOOL     = Boolean ON/OFF checkbox.
          INTERNAL = No GUI entry (used for persistent variables).
 }}}

 I don't know if specifying two types is causing any problems, but it is
 probably not working as intended.  For the two APPLE SET commands, I
 replaced STRING INTERNAL with FILEPATH "A Description" FORCE.
