See documentation here:

http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html#include-directories-and-usage-requirements [^]
"Include directories usage requirements commonly differ between the build-tree and the install-tree. The BUILD_INTERFACE and INSTALL_INTERFACE generator expressions can be used to describe separate usage requirements based on the usage location."

Reading this "set_property(TARGET tgt APPEND PROPERTY
  $<BUILD_INTERFACE:${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR};${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}>" I understood. One can influence INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES indirect only. So this is the reason why the I_I_D property can not be set to read-only. I guess, I am not the last one who runs in this pitfall. Thanks for help. This topic is resolved.

It looks like there was an update to the cmake-buildsystem manual to explain this case in more detail. I've backported it for 3.0:

 Help: Add code example for INSTALL_INTERFACE to cmake-buildsystem.

I also extended the documentation in the target_include_directories command and the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES property to explain how to use $<BUILD_INTERFACE> and $<INSTALL_INTERFACE>:

 Help: Explain build/install-tree include dirs in more places
