One more warning about adding your own -I flags... I think this will break the dependency scanner of CMake, and the depends will be wrong if you do not use include_directories.

Our use case is we have a directory where our many different device drivers
are built with wildly varying compilation flag (both -I and -D)
requirements.  So it seemed natural to use SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES( ...
PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS ...) to handle each device driver separately rather
than using ADD_DEFINITIONS and INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES.  The method appears to
work fine, but I haven't tested the case where some external library header
has been changed to see if CMake responds properly.  I will probably just
stick with the present method until CMake adds the feature of per-target
ADD_DEFINITIONS and INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES (assuming they do handle the
external dependency case correctly).

For PLplot headers scattered all over our build tree for our various
libraries we do use INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to find them so all the internal
dependencies should be correct.
