Until now, that had not been requested.   Would it hurt if the rc program got
the same include path as the compiler?  That might be an easy fix, or I guess a special
variable or new command could be created.

I guess it can be turned on with a command line option right?
Just add that option to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS in your cache.

I have not used GTK, I guess you are saying it requires two include paths?
If you want to fix FindGTK.cmake and send it to me, I can put it in the next 
release.

The PDF is up-to-date for CMake 1.2, and the command section of that document
is autogenerated.   

There is doxygen here:
http://www.cmake.org/doc/nightly/html/

But that will only help with cmake development and not use.
