Summary0010136: CMake should prefer /usr over /
DescriptionThe Filesystem Hierarchy Standard:
    
  http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ [^]

says that linkable libraries do not belong in "/lib". Furthermore, there is never a "/include". Few tools, if any, exist in both "/bin" and "/usr/bin" with different versions. Therefore "/usr/lib" and "/usr/include" should be preferred, and the prefix "/usr" should go before "/".
