Summary:                    include does not find files in current directory if
module path discovered through CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
Description: 
Setup:

someprefix/share/mytest/cmake/MyTestConfig.cmake:

  include(somethingspecific)

---

someprefix/share/mytest/cmake/somethingspecific.cmake:

  message("Hello, World!")

---

somesourcecode/CMakeLists.txt

  cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)

  find_package(MyTest REQUIRED CONFIG)

---

Build with

cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=someprefix

CMake Error at (snip)/someprefix/share/mytest/cmake/MyTestConfig.cmake:1
(include):
  include could not find load file:

    somethingspecific
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:3 (find_package)


This is the setup LLVM has for its config, and it does not work in our setup for
the same reason.

Manually adding someprefix/share/mytest/cmake to the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH fixes
this, but is that not implied from someprefix being on the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH?

Our scenario is that we have many isolated package installations distributed
across many prefixes, each with an entry on CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.

Thanks
