Summary:                    set_property file.c PROPERTY COMPILE_FLAGS should
allow a list of flags
Description: 
set_property(SOURCE file.c PROPERTY COMPILE_FLAGS "-DX=FOO -DBAR=ZOO")

is nice, unless you want to pass strings with spaces etc. I can't imagine
setting compile flags this way is very portable.

The alternative is to create "static libraries", set additional cflags for
those, then link agains the static libraries - but that's overkill.

Setting priority to low because I don't require the feature (evaluating
alternative configuration tools trying to find one which can run cofiguration
tests in parallel)
