I just did some tinkering and found that a simple change of modifying
the ExternalObj test to link with the external object resulted in a
failure.
ADD_EXECUTABLE(ExternalOBJ executable.cxx ${EXTERNAL_OBJECT})
SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(${EXTERNAL_OBJECT} PROPERTIES EXTERNAL_OBJECT 1)
Perhaps the fact that there's a rule to generate the custom object
changes how it's handled?
