This is, in fact, the fault of cmake, which tries to be intelligent and 
helpful, as usual. In the cmake package, I caught it and changed all 
explicit /sw to %p. But other packages like podofo9 that take a cmake 
module and modify it for their own purposes, will get tricked by this, 
and it is hard to catch if you are building on a machine where %p=/sw.
Anyway, pdodofo9 should now be fixed (also for the missing libpng15 
dependency, although I don't quite understand why it failed for you there).

Thanks for doing this work.
