The code writes out reasonable per-target values for both "IntDir" and
"OutDir" -- you can change the output directory on a per-target basis
for various types of files with the following target properties:

  http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
  http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
  http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY

See also the "_CONFIG" variants to specify per-configuration output directories.

You cannot change IntDir, but you can use ${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR} in
custom commands if necessary, to direct custom output to the same
location as build output.
