I tried something like that. The first problem is, that this script is
not run at the end but somewhere in between the toplevel install rules
and the subdirectory install rules.
The second, that I need ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} in the install script,
because I have to execute as bash script which resides in
${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/tools but the value of ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} is the
same as ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR} in the  install script (tested with
MESSAGE(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}...).

Do I have to use CONFIGURE_FILE to set the correct paths in the
install script? Seems to be a lot of effort for this simple task.
