CPack can't handle absolute install paths (like /usr/local/include) unless 
CPACK_SET_DESTDIR is set, then it installs in the specified location and picks 
the files from there. Normal behaviour is to install in a temporary location by 
modifying the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and fetching them from there.

What's CPack's thought model for installing a package of headers and libraries 
from a TGZ on Unixen? That the files should go in a separate a package 
directory? Because that might match Windows/Macosx install models, but not Unix 
where they normally go in a standardized location that is already in the 
appropriate search paths.... Anyway to achieve this?
