After working through the details of this over the weekend
the fix and a bunch of tests are now in master.  It ended
up taking several commits.  The main one is:

 CMP0022: Plain target_link_libraries must populate link interface
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=ef10b87c

Two other important changes are:

 Do not export INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES from non-linkable targets
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=23d21b78

 CMP0022: Warn about a given target at most once
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=0a561a03

I plan to include all this in 2.8.12.1.  Please test ASAP.

Thanks,
