Summary:                    RPATH not supported when cross compiling for FreeBSD
Description: 
We have a MinGW hosted gcc cross compiler for windows that that targets FreeBSD.
The created makefiles for MinGW make don't add any -rpath options to the linker
command line. 

Steps to Reproduce: 
I don't really know how how to provide a test case. The cross compiler is pretty
large as it needs a lot of system libraries and headers to function properly. I
can provide it if neccessary.

Additional Information: 
I think the reason for this is in:
CMAKE_ROOT/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/Platform/FreeBSD.cmake.
If I comment out the checks for existence of a file "/usr/include/dlfcn.h"
everything starts working. Unfortunately I don't know the proper way to deal
with this in a way that it still checks what it is supposed to check in a cross
compiling environment.
