I have made widespread but minor changes today to get away from deprecated features of CMake.
execute_process changes: I changed the last few instances of exec_program (which is deprecated by CMake) to execute_process. pkg-config changes: I defined a pkg_check_pkgconfig macro within pkg_config.cmake which is based on the _pkg_check_modules_internal macro defined in FindPkgConfig.cmake. I replaced all instances of pkgconfig with pkg_check_pkgconfig, and all instances of PKGCONFIG_EXECUTABLE with PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE. pkgconfig and PKGCONFIG_EXECUTABLE are defined in the UsePkgConfig.cmake module which is deprecated in the CVS version of CMake. pkg_check_pkgconfig is defined in pkg-config.cmake and PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE is defined in FindPkgConfig.cmake. I have done some testing of the above widespread changes, and the build, the install-tree example build, and the execution of the install-tree examples seems to be working on Ubuntu Dapper, but some additional testing on all the platforms available to you may turn up some bugs so let me know if you find anything. When adding new possibilities to our CMake-based build system, please avoid using exec_program or pkgconfig from now on. Use execute_process and pkg_check_pkgconfig instead.
