Summary:                    CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS assignment in
CMakeCommonLanguageInclude.cmake needs quotes
Description: 
In CMakeCommonLanguageInclude.cmake, there is this cache variable assignment:

    SET (CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS ${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT} $ENV{LDFLAGS}
         CACHE STRING "Flags used by the linker.")

I am using the NMake generator, with LDFLAGS set in the environment. In a
build.make file, I am seeing a link command line containing the following
excerpt:

    [...]000 /INCREMENTAL:NO /machine:x64;/FIXED:NO /INCREMEN[...]

"/FIXED:NO" is the first thing in my LDFLAGS setting. Double-quotes are needed
when setting CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS.
