Okay, thanks.

I noticed that generatorIface hard-codes "$<NOT:$<CONFIG:Debug>>"
instead of looking up the list of DEBUG configs:

  // Get the list of configurations considered to be DEBUG.
  std::vector<std::string> const& debugConfigs =
    this->Makefile->GetCMakeInstance()->GetDebugConfigs();

Perhaps the simplest solution is to add a new generator expression
such as $<CONFIG_DEBUG> that evaluates to 1 or 0 depending on
whether the configuration is considered a debug config.
