Brad King 5b9149e083 FindBoost: Overhaul caching and search repeat behavior
Overhaul the implementation as follows:

(1) Do not cache result variables such as Boost_VERSION,
Boost_LIB_VERSION, Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS, Boost_${COMPONENT}_FOUND,
Boost_${COMPONENT}_LIBRARY, or Boost_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC_DEFINITIONS that are
derived uniquely from other search results.  The user should not edit
them anyway.

(2) Add cache value Boost_LIBRARY_DIR to hold the single directory
expected to contain all libraries.  Once one library is found, search
only that directory for other libraries.

(3) Use the find_library NAMES_PER_DIR option to consider all possible
library names at the same time.

(4) Collect all documented input and cache variables and detect when
they have been changed by the user.  Discard prior search results that
may have been influenced by the changes and search for them again.
Environment variables are not expected to be persistent so use them only
as hints and do not consider changes to them to be meaningful.

Readme.txt

This is CMake, the cross-platform, open-source make system.
CMake is distributed under the BSD 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
