Perhaps a static method in cmGlobalGenerator would be best since
that (+subclasses) is where all the reserved names get defined.
Add it near the block starting with GetAllTargetName and include
a comment warning that adding more reserved target names in the
future will require a policy.

Note that the sweeping topic I mention in this thread:

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.programming.tools.cmake.devel/8660

also modified cmGlobalGenerator.* so you may get conflicts.  If
so, please wait until after the pause is lifted before proceeding.

Thanks,
