[Cmake] COnfigure_file

[Bill Hoffman]

It should work for binary files.   We often copy images in some of our applications.
If it is not working it is a bug.   What version of cmake, and how was it built?
If you built/modified cmake, I would suggest trying the pre-compiled binary from Kitware,
and running a small test case that copies your binary file with CONFIGURE_FILE.
