Summary:                    On Mac OS X, the CMake .app filename should not
contain the version number
Description: 
The binary CMake distributions for Mac OS X name the executable "CMake
2.8.3.app", it should be just "CMake.app".

One has only to look into the /Applications folder to see that this is the Mac
convention.

Practically, this is a pain because every time I upgrade, I have to change all
my scripts to refer to the new filename.
