[CMake] imported lib properties...

[Asmodehn Shade]

Hi, Brad,

Yes  I think the second call was using the correct target...

sorry I cant be sure or provide a test example, it was quite some time
ago...

I've been a bit busy implementing some cmake script for automated
dependencies detection and propagation in a chain of project depending on
each other...

I have a question related to that but I ll post it in a new thread...

Thanks anyway,
