Summary:                    Failed to link against framework in
/Library/Framework when CMAKE_OS_* variables are set
Description: 

Failed to link against framework in /Library/Framework when CMAKE_OS_* variables
are set

The problem occurs when using:
  - CMake 2.8.10.2
  - mac OSX 10.8
  - XCode Version 4.5.2 (4G2008a)
  - g++ --version i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-g++-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple
Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)

After installing qt 4.7.4:
ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-mac-opensource-4.7.4.dmg

This small project allows to reproduce the problem.

$ git clone git://github.com/jcfr/CMakeWithQtFramework.git
$ mkdir CMakeWithQtFramework-build
$ cd CMakeWithQtFramework-build
$ cmake ../
[…]

$ make VERBOSE=1
[…]

By manually adding -F /Library/Frameworks to the build line, it succeed. 

 /usr/bin/c++    -arch x86_64 -isysroot
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.8.sdk
-mmacosx-version-min=10.8 -Wl,-search_paths_first
-Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names   CMakeFiles/foo.dir/main.cpp.o  -o foo 
-framework QtWebKit -framework QtXmlPatterns -framework QtGui -framework
QtNetwork -framework QtCore -F /Library/Frameworks/

I would assume that CMake should automatically add the "-F /Library/Frameworks/"
