Summary0010749: CMakeDetermineSystem.cmake gets the wrong O/S version on AIX 4 & 5
DescriptionCMakeDetermineSystem.cmake uses "uname -r" to getCMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION on AIX.
AIX uses "uname -v" for the major version and "uname -r" for the minor version.
So, for example AIX 5.1 reports "1" and AIX 4.3.3 reports "3" as the CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationChange the CMakeDetermineSystem.cmake from:
  IF(CMAKE_UNAME)
    EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -s OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME)
    EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -r OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION)

To:
  IF(CMAKE_UNAME)
    EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -s OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME)
    IF(CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "AIX")
        EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -v OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_MAJOR_VERSION)
        EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -r OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_MINOR_VERSION)
        SET(CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION "${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_MAJOR_VERSION}.${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_MINOR_VERSION}")
    ELSE(CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "AIX")
        EXEC_PROGRAM(uname ARGS -r OUTPUT_VARIABLE CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION)
    ENDIF(CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "AIX")

This will fix it.
