[CMake] Compile cmake on Power5 based computer

[Dong Luo]

-fPIC and -rdynamic are not flags for xlC. By defining
CXX to gxlc++ (which suppose to translate the flags),
the ./bootstrap finished without problem.
However, the next step of type gmake as suggested
give:
Linking CXX executable
../../bin/testCommandLineArguments
/opt/ibmcmp/vacpp/7.0/bin/xlC: 1501-216 command option
-rdynamic is not recognized - passed to ld
/usr/bin/ld: bad -rpath option
gmake[2]: *** [bin/testCommandLineArguments] Error 1
gmake[1]: ***
[Source/kwsys/CMakeFiles/testCommandLineArguments.dir/all]
Error 2
gmake: *** [all] Error 2

Is there a way to let gmake use gxlc++ instead of xlC?
