The makefile used in the test uses $(shell ...), which is
AFAIK a GNU extension, and will probably not work e.g. with OpenBSD make.
According to the FreeBSD make manpage their make has a != assignment,
which seems to do something similar, but I don't have such a system
around for testing.
Also, the point of this test is not to write a portable makefile,
but to check whether cmake --find-package prints a correct string.

The commit message for the previous commit was wrong, it should
have been: fix the test by using $(shell ...) syntax instead
of backticks in the Makefile.
With backticks I couldn't get the quoting right.
Printing -I"/some/path with space" did not work, the compiler
complained that there is not file "with". Also backslashes in
different numbers did not make it work.

Instead of relying on that some development package is installed on the
system, now a tiny library is built, which is the searched and used
during the test.

Any STATUS output will be fed directly to the compiler, which
will not understand any status messages. Error messages
are fine, since they are errors and it is ok if the compiler
fails in such cases.

BSD make doesn't seem to support -C, so do not use it,
According to the documentation the working directory is set
to CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR anyway, so it should work just the same.

If CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P is not set from the outside, it checks for the
existance of /usr/lib64, and if it exists, SIZEOF_VOID_P is set to 8.
For multiarch, if this is debian and
CMAKE_${LANGUAGE}_LANGUAGE_ARCHITECTURE has not been set, it globs
for the files in /lib, and uses the first one which matches
CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE_REGEX.

In find-package mode, cmake executes Modules/CMakeFindPackage.cmake,
which calls find_package(), and this is then evaluated in cmake.cxx,
which prints an appropriate message to stdout, so it can be used
e.g. in a normal Makefile:
$ /opt/cmake-HEAD/bin/cmake --find-package -DNAME=JPEG
-DCOMPILER_ID=GNU -DLANGUAGE=C -DMODE=EXIST
JPEG found.
$ /opt/cmake-HEAD/bin/cmake --find-package -DNAME=JPEG
-DCOMPILER_ID=GNU -DLANGUAGE=C -DMODE=COMPILE
$ /opt/cmake-HEAD/bin/cmake --find-package -DNAME=JPEG
-DCOMPILER_ID=GNU -DLANGUAGE=C -DMODE=LINK
-rdynamic -ljpeg

This reverts commit 1088b0278e.
Wrapper dependency scanning (fix for #4147) does not work at CMake
configuration time if an input file is provided by a custom command
(regression #12307). Revert to original behavior until a solution is
found.
8555c2b Look for VCExpress as a possible build tool as well as devenv.
ed0075b Use relative paths for custom command inputs.
38368d5 Revert "With very long file names, VS 2010 was unable to compile files."
8cd66dc Use devenv instead of msbuild for vs2010.
For source files we use full paths. This allows for longer directory
names with VS2010. However, the use of full paths causes the GUI
to not display the custom commands.
