It is supported in 2.6.  The Modules directory has files

  Platform/Linux-PGI-C.cmake
  Platform/Linux-PGI-CXX.cmake
  CMakeCCompilerId.c.in
  CMakeCXXCompilerId.cpp.in

The first two files have some flag configuration options for the
compiler (this is a newer naming convention than "pgcc.cmake").  The
last two files are used to identify the specified compiler, and they do
contain "PGI" identification support.  We've used it to cross-compile
from Linux to Catamount.

Have you actually tried it?

FYI, since 2.6.0 was released some improved support with more flags and
the Fortran compiler has been contributed.  That will be in 2.6.1.
