 # Unfortunately, CMake doesn't give you variables with current day, month,
-# etc.  There are several approaches to this - the most theoretically robust,
-# and the first one tried, builds a small C file which writes out the needed
-# values to files in the build directory, which are then read and stripped by
-# CMake - essentially the same approach as the version numbers except with the
-# C file generating the files.  If that fails, fall back on command line 
scripts
-# and output capture - this will work well on systems with the date command but
-# Windows does not provide region-independent ordering for day/month in its
-# command line tool outputs.  It is vastly preferable to have the C based
-# solution succeed.
