Done. 
I noticed that almost all calls are now:
set(<var> ${<var>} PARENT_SCOPE)

Is propagating the value up to the parent directory really a good idea ? If 
people want to do that (get some information from somewhere deep in the tree 
up to some other place) they can use a global property.
I feel like removing the else{} part in cmMakefile::RaiseScope()...
