Summary0011140: InstallRequiredSystemLibraries defaults to /bin on Win32
Description/bin is hardcoded for binaries in a few places in the CMake codebase, this is another one.

It would be good if you could specify an argument to have the binaries installed somewhere other than /bin on Windows (or /lib outside of Windows).

4 months later ping. If I shouldn't be bugs on the bug tracker can you suggest the best way of getting these looked at?

Thanks!

You can already do this. Just:
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_SKIP ON)
before including InstallRequiredSystemLibraries.

Then add your own install rules after including it, that install ${CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS} to your desired location.

That's the way to do override the default location of "bin" which we are not going to change for backwards compatibility reasons.

Should make it into 2.8.4...

Thanks, Mike McQuaid, for the patch / pull request!
