Summary:                    CMake fails to identify the compiler
Description: 
CMake fails to identify compiler as a result you cannot build even a simple
C/C++ program on AIX 5.3

Additional Information: 
The issue is converting CMakeCXXCompilerId.cpp.in and CMakeCCompilerId.c.in to
CMakeCXXCompilerId.cpp and CMakeCCompilerId.c
For some reason the first character in file is missed out when creating the .cpp
and .c file.

As a work around I had to put additional space at the beginning of the file.

Also there is issue around @CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID_PLATFORM_CONTENT@ in both
files.
I had to add " /" (a space and /) in front of 
@CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID_PLATFORM_CONTENT@ to get it working.

I am attaching both modified files.
