Summary:                    cmake doesn't build on my ARM system, can't find
external libraries
Description: 
cmake build fails always with a message, it can't find an external library.
Usually this is ZLIB, but if I fiddle with FindZLIB (Insert name of Library),
then it fails on next package, which is Curl. And so on.

The problem seams to be the cmake function Find_Library. It does not find
external library names without adding explicit ".so" extension to list of
searched name.

On my x86 Box this works correct, only on my ARM it neglects to build, so it may
be a problem with setting up system names or detecting system.

This was also true in 2.8.10 and 2.8.11.1/2.

Steps to Reproduce: 
Gentoo standard build with native armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueapi toolchain.

Let me know what information you need for debugging. The ARM system is not my
mail system, so I need to transfer information.
