    Log:
    cmake: Generate def files in build time using an external script
    extractor.cmake script (similarly to extractor.py).

    * build/cmake/extractor.cmake: New file, with symbol scrapper code.
    * CMakeLists.txt
       (def generator): Generate def files using custom commands and
        the extractor.cmake script.


    Why?  What's the difference, other than you're now spawning
    another cmake process?

You no longer need to reconfigure the entire project when changing a 
set of public symbols exported from a shared library on windows, which 
was really annoying before, at least for me.

I don't understand. You still have to generate the new .def file. How do 
you do that? By invoking extractor.cmake directly?
