Summary:                    Different search orders for C and C++ compilers
Description: 
The search order for C compilers (CMAKE_C_COMPILER_LIST) set in
CMakeDetermineCCompiler.cmake has gcc first and cc second.
The search order for C++ compilers (CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LIST) set in
CMakeDetermineCXXCompiler.cmake has c++ first and g++ second.
On recent versions of Mac OS X, this results in the default compilers being the
GNU C compiler and the Clang C++ compiler.
This mixing of compiler suites has caused problems for us when detecting which
command-line options are supported.
Can the compiler search orders be made consistent?
