Summary:                    Issue with CheckTypeSize test
Description: 
Hello,

after switching from CMake version 2.8.0 to 2.8.3 I ran into the following
issue. I have a script named 'FindComLibs1.0.cmake' which does contain the
following statement:

include(CheckTypeSize)
check_type_size("void*" _comlibs1.0_void_ptr_size BUILTIN_TYPES_ONLY)

running a CMake project containing a find_package call to this script does
produce the following error:

-- Check size of void*
CMake Error: Unknown extension ".0_void_ptr_size.c" for file
"E:/prod_xxx_/Build32/caddy/CMakeFiles/CheckTypeSize/_comlibs1.0_void_ptr_size.c".
TRY_COMPILE only works for enabled languages.
Currently enabled languages are: C CXX RC
See PROJECT command for help enabling other languages.
-- Check size of void* - failed

I think that the determination of the file extension is wrongly implemented.
