Thanks very much for that, Raphael.  Unfortunately, my knowledge of
CMake macros and commands is rather hazy and I did not understand
everything you wrote.  The beta tagging is close and I am in an odd
timezone (East coast of Australia), which makes communication difficult,
especially IRC.  So maybe it would be safer for me to leave things as
I last committed them, rather than get into CMake stuff that is new to me.

Maybe we can refine this during the beta phase?  Should I write to
you personally?  Or maybe we could meet on the KDE Games list?
I am sure other subdirs in KDE Games (and their authors) could benefit
from better CMake programming.

Thanks again, Ian W.
