Okay. I've made a note about this issue to make sure it is fixed before 3.4.
Meanwhile I have another comment on genex support in the OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
properties. Currently the properties support both
{ARCHIVE,LIBRARY,RUNTIME}_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
and
{ARCHIVE,LIBRARY,RUNTIME}_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
variants. When the former is used CMake will still add the /<CONFIG>
directory suffix to the end of the value. When the latter is used
CMake does not do this.
With the former, when a genex like $<CONFIG> is used, it is likely
that the user does not want CMake to add the /<CONFIG> suffix.
Perhaps we should detect when a genex is present in the value and
skip adding the suffix, thus trusting the user to have done the right
thing (e.g. $<1:value> will still not get a suffix).
Of course this would have to be documented carefully. We could also
disallow a genex in the latter (per-config) variants to encourage
modern use of the former.
