Yes.

No, there may not, at least it is the goal to have CMake 2.6 completely 
compatible. If something is working with CMake 2.4 but doesn't work with 2.6 
this is considered a bug (maybe except for undocumented functions/variables, 
and maybe except things where one could argue about which behaviour 
is "correct").

The documentation how the variables should be named is in 
CMake/Modules/readme.txt.

The documentation for the modules coming with cmake is on the man page, with 
cmake cvs it is possible to also create documentation for modules in 
CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.
