Summary0012303: ARGN stripped of empty elements
Description
When creating a function with optional arguments, ARGN is strip of empty arguments.
This means one cannot use ARGN for optional arguments that are ordered.

function(foo arg1 arg2)
  message("ARGV=${ARGV}")
  # should give "arg1;arg2;;arg4"
  message("ARGN=${ARGN}")
  # should give ";arg4" instead of "arg4"
endfunction(foo)

foo("arg1" "arg2" "" "arg4")

Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.

(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)

If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]

It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.
