Yes.  But it provides language support for various platforms/compilers in
Modules/Platform.  So probably in this case Modules/Platform/HP-UX.cmake 
has to be changed (that sets default compiler flags for the HP-UX platform)
or even Modules/Platform/HP-UX-COMPILER_NAME added (that sets specific flags
for compiler = COMPILER_NAME on HP-UX that are different than the platform
defaults given in Modules/Platform/HP-UX.cmake) to accomodate some new
possibilities.  Once you have modified Modules/Platform files so your
platform/compiler is working, send a patch.
