So, CMake has done what it does now from the start. There was a short
period of time when it did not, and that was when a re-write was done,
and it quickly broke some existing projects. Here is the thread:

I think the rule should be if you want to change a variable you have to
have the set AFTER the variable, or use CACHE INTERNAL.
