[CMake] Help: erroneous '-ltbb' getting injected into link command implicitly

Hi Chris,

Are you, by any chance, using (via find_package), another library that may
have been built with tbb support?
I've had the exact same problem you describe with OpenCV, when my own
targets link against the opencv ones.

Regards,
Luis
