This cleans up the 'cmake --build' command-line interface:
- Rename --clean to --clean-first to better describe it.
- Replace --extra-options with a -- separator to simplify passing of
multiple native build tool options.
- Document the options in the main CMake man page description of the
--build option, and shares this with the usage message.
- Require --build to be the first argument when present.
- Move implementation into cmakemain where it belongs.
- CMake 1.8 and below did not do the check but could get in
infinite loops due to the local generate step.
- CMake 2.0 added the check but failed to perform it in directories
with no targets (see bug #678).
- CMake 2.2 removed the local generate which fixed the problem but
did not remove the check.
- Between CMake 2.4 and 2.6.0rc6 the check was fixed to work even
when no targets appear in a directory (see bug #6923).
- Bottom line: the check is no longer needed.
- Add cmListFileBacktrace to record stack traces
- Move main IssueMessage method to the cmake class instance
(make the backtrace an explicit argument)
- Change cmMakefile::IssueMessage to construct a backtrace
and call the cmake instance version
- Record a backtrace at the point a target is created
(useful later for messages issued by generators)
- ZERO_CHECK should check all stamps in case
of parallel build (fixes complex test failure)
- ZERO_CHECK should not appear when
CMAKE_SUPPRESS_REGENERATION is on (fixes bug 6490)
-remove the unscriptable commands also from the cpack cmake
-use CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT in CMakeCPack.cmake, it's used in the nsis and
the deb generator
-make set_properties() scriptable
-use a non-const char array for adding the python modules

GetLocaGenerators(cmLocalGenerators) from cmGlobalGenerator(). Now there is
one const accessor which is even faster since it returns a reference
(instead of copying a vector)
-more const to ensure that this the returned local generators don't actually
get modified
-removed duplicated code in GetCTestCommand() and GetCPackCommand()
-added some const accessors

as discussed with David. This also gives a better ctest man page with just
the commands you should actually use in ctest scripts.
Until now these commands were more or less executed, but e.g. add_executable() didn't create an executable, project() failed with an
error. Now you get an error instantly if using one of these commands.
Alex
write generators for IDE projects, which use already existing makefiles
(current the kdevelop generator)
-first stept of the export interface, iniitial export() command
-more replacements for the FIND_XXX docs
Alex
-cmCacheManager: now also variables with type UNINITIALIZED are saved in
CMakeCache.txt, these are the vars defined using -DFOO=foo but without type
