Hmm, ok.  
Still it feels to me strange to have to mix a single SUBDIRS() command 
with several ADD_SUBDIRECTORY() commands, since both do almost the same 
thing, with some subtle differences you wouldn't think of in the first 
moment. 
Couldn't this be somehow integrated in the SUBDIRS() command, maybe 
combined with SET_DIRECTORY_PROPERTIES() or something like that ?
