I'm using CMake 2.0.3 for Makefile/icc, Makefile/gcc, Windows/.net 2000 and Windows/.net 2003.
I am afraid the full name and path will be an issue since the name of the library can be either libXyz.a, libXyz.so or Xyz.lib.
I was thinking of a way to use the library name as it can be used in
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARY(targetX Xyz)
ADD_DEPENDENCIES(targetX Xyz)

Maybe with an extra keyword
ADD_DEPENDENCIES(targetX library Xyz)
