I think this is currently not possible.
You could set the COMPILE_FLAGS property for the specific targets.
I'm not quite sure how the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_FLAGS and friends are handled, 
if they are project-global (I don't think so), ot directory-global (maybe) or 
local where they appear (also maybe).
You could set these variables just as you need them and see what happens.
