[CMake] how to place all executables in /build/bin directory

[Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin]

Hi Arvind,

As documented here<http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake2.6docs.html#variable:CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY>,
set the variable CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY instead.

Usually I set this one just after I invoke PROJECT() command.

Indeed, as specified
here<http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake2.6docs.html#variable:EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH>,
EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH has been deprecated since cmake 2.6.
