Ok the patch was now modified that only a single platform
configuration is generated, and the Platform is selected through the
generator. But you still have to manually select the compiler, either
through a toolchain file or through the cmake-gui. I think we could
set these settings in
cmGlobalVisualStudion8_SDKGenerator::AddPlatformDefinitions based on
the PlatformDefs. But my time box for this task is running out.

The bug regarding C projects is gone, and the issue with the platform
names missing in linker paths is fixed too. Our project builds fine
with this cmake.

The patch has been uploaded to: http://cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=7919

kind regards
Andreas Pokorny
