I'll be honest: I've never had to supply custom args to any of the cmake
projects I've used on a regular basis. I've always understood that one of the
key points of cmake is to be as 'hassle free' as possible. Requiring build
arguments seems counter to that.
That said, making an env var to supply arguments to the build tool would need
to be in an array to avoid the IFS problems.
