[CMake] Target 'copy-construction'/'fork'

Hi,

Given a target named Foo, is there a simple/builtin way to create a copy of that 
target named Bar so that it retains all the properties of Foo but can be 
independently changed from that point onward i.e. is there a way for CMake 
targets to follow the semantics of standard C++ objects with copy-constructors..?
This would be useful for creating targets which are essentially the same but 
differ only in a few properties (e.g. creating /MD and /MT versions of a MSVC 
DLL)...
