[CMake] Linking to a library with a "-"

When I add a line like this:

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(MyProject boost_program_options-mt)

in my link.txt file, -lboost_program_options gets produced instead (without
the "-mt"), and therefore the library cannot be found. I've been creating a
symlink with the name without the -mt and that works, but it seems silly to
have to do that. Is there a way to link to a library name which contains a
"-"?

Thanks,

David
