With link_directories() you can add directories which will be used when 
linking, i.e. link_directories(/usr/fink/) would add a "-L/usr/fink" to the 
command line.

This doesn't help for the cmake scripts (modules) which try to find packages. 
There you have two chances: 
1) Add your directory in the FindFoo.cmake file to the find_package() 
commands. Since it won't exist on other platforms this isn't a problem for 
these other platforms.
2) Recently there was a discussion on the cmake list about making standard 
search paths configurable via variables. I don't know if this has already 
been implemented. Bill ?

Bye
Alex
