Brad King 5233b75a77 ENH: Improve handling of old-style compatibility.
- Remove CMP_0001 (no slash in target name) and restore
    old CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY check for it
  - Replace all checks of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY
    with cmLocalGenerator::NeedBackwardsCompatibility calls
  - Create new CMP_0001 to determine whether or not
    CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY is used.
    (old = use, new = ignore)
  - Show CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY in cache only when
    CMP_0001 is set to OLD or WARN
  - Update documentation of cmake_policy and cmake_minimum_required
    to indicate their relationship and the 2.4 version boundary
  - When no cmake policy version is set in top level makefile
    implicitly call cmake_policy(VERSION 2.4) which restores
    CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY and other 2.4 compatibility
  - Fix tests MakeClean and Preprocess to call
    cmake_policy(VERSION 2.6) because they depend on new policies

This is CMake, the cross-platform, open-source make system.
CMake is free software under a BSD-like license, see Copyright.txt.
For documentation see the Docs/ directory once you have built CMake 
or visit http://www.cmake.org.


Building CMake
==============


Supported Platforms
-------------------

MS Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, BeOS, QNX

Other UNIX-like operating systems may work too out of the box, if not
it shouldn't be a major problem to port CMake to this platform. Contact the
CMake mailing list in this case: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake


If you don't have any previous version of CMake already installed
--------------------------------------------------------------

* UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin:

You need to have a compiler and a make installed.
Run the bootstrap script you find the in the source directory of CMake.
You can use the --help option to see the supported options.
You may want to use the --prefix=<install_prefix> option to specify a custom
installation directory for CMake. You can run the bootstrap script from
within the CMake source directory or any other build directory of your
choice. Once this has finished successfully, run make and make install.
So basically it's the same as you may be used to from autotools-based
projects:

$ ./bootstrap; make; make install


* Other Windows: 

You need to download and install a binary release of CMake in order to build
CMake.  You can get these releases from 
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html .  Then proceed with the instructions
below.


You already have a version of CMake installed
---------------------------------------------

You can build CMake as any other project with a CMake-based build system:
run the installed CMake on the sources of this CMake with your preferred
options and generators. Then build it and install it.
For instructions how to do this, see http://www.cmake.org/HTML/RunningCMake.html
