I just pushed a branch SetPropertyAppendString to the next branch.
There set_property() has the new option APPEND_STRING, which can be used instead of APPEND, then the new value is simply appended to the existing string, instead of being appended as a new element to a list.

Not directly related to this, but you can set the language on a source file in a cross platform/compiler way:

http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_sf:LANGUAGE [^]

http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:set_source_files_properties [^]

Set the language to CXX.
