The LSB header files define major() as a macro but if it is ever called
the macro references symbols not available at link time. Improve the
test for major() to actually call the macro and try to link. This
approach is based on upstream libarchive SVN commit 2866 which fixed
libarchive issue 125, submitted in response to CMake issue #11648.

The check works for macros, functions, and variables, but not for types
or enumeration values. Clearly describe the behavior of the check with
respect to each symbol type.
Explicitly state up front that the source-file form of the command links
an executable and expects a 'main' to be defined. While at it, update
the command signature documentation to use a syntax more consistent with
other commands. Also tweak some wording.
Teach the ArgumentExpansion test to expect flattened lists as has always
been the case in the CMake language. Now that the test should pass
enable the failure regex even when CMAKE_STRICT is not on. Replace the
reference to the old ArgumentExpansion test behavior in the workaround
comment in cmMakefile::TryCompile with a full inline explanation.

Control the root directory of the default directory presented to
the end user of an NSIS installer by a CPack variable.
Previously, the value used in the NSIS script was $PROGRAMFILES,
which is equivalent to the "ProgramFiles" environment variable.
That default value is still the same, but now a project may
override the value by setting this new variable.
GNU Make 3.82 incorrectly parses make dependencies involving parentheses
in path names. See related upstream issue:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?30612
Skip testing the ()-named subdirectory.
Introduced an additional variable, Python_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS, to both
FindPythonLibs and FindPythonInterp. Changed FindPythonInterp to loop
over versions rather than hardcoding all versions (more like libs).
Although the LOCATION property is for compatibility with CMake 2.4, the
LOCATION_<CONFIG> property is modern. However, if a project reads it
and sets location-altering properties later the behavior is undefined.
See parent commit for details.
Reading the LOCATION target property currently locks down the result and
ignores any later changes to properties that affect it. This may or may
not be expected and may or may not be the behavior in earlier versions
of CMake. The property is documented as provided only for compatibility
with CMake 2.4 and alternative interfaces are now available for all
originally envisioned use cases. We want to discourage its use without
outright deprecating it. Add documentation to explicitly state that
reading the property before other properties are set is undefined.
Commit aaa88d33 (Build large archives incrementally, 2008-08-04)
hard-coded rules to create static archives incrementally in each
language information file. Set each rule conditionally to allow
compiler and platform information files to override the language
default rules.

This adds the ability for packagers to specify that some libraries
should use system versions and others should use the CMake versions.
This allows a bit of flexibility and means Homebrew (an OSX package
manager) no longer has to continue to patch the CMake build process.

Previously, only strings containing "http:" qualified as
URLs when found in CPACK_NSIS_MENU_LINKS. Now, we use a
regex to detect strings beginning with any of the following:
ftp://
ftps://
http://
https://
news://
mailto:
This commit also moves the caller of CreateMenuLinks outside
the "if (cpackPackageExecutables)" block, allowing clients to
use CPACK_NSIS_MENU_LINKS without also having CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES
defined. That bit of this commit fixes the remainder of the
issue described in http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=7828
Also, added a set(CPACK_NSIS_MENU_LINKS ...) to the CPackComponents
test to enable verifying that all of this actually works.
