Summary:                    FindMatlab.cmake is outdated/broken
Description: 
The current FindMatlab.cmake doesn't work very well in finding libraries and
important executables.

There is a version that originated in the Gerardus project
(https://code.google.com/p/gerardus/) that does a better job.

Steps to Reproduce: 
find_package(MatLab REQUIRED)
if(NOT MATLAB_MEX_PATH)
  message("MATLAB_MEX_PATH not found, you must not be using the new
FindMatlab.cmake")
endif()

Additional Information: 
Attached file is what we use with some success.
