This is very old version of CMake.
Are you sure you are not able to at least require 2.6 (if not 2.8)
I understand you are beginning with CMake so this historical
requirement may not be necessary.
(Unless you know that some of your user must use CMake 2.4)

I would do:
PROJECT(hybridnccsurfacecoloring C CXX)

if(UNIX)
   enable_language(Fortran)
endif(UNIX)

link_libraries is "Deprecated." you should use "target_link_libraries" on each
target instead.
