Summary:                    eclipse generator creates invalid .cproject file
Description: 
When in a project 'find_package(Qt4)' is used, the generated .cproject file is
invalid. After opening such a project in eclipse via 'File->import...->existing
projects into workspace' eclipse reports repeatedly 

[Fatal Error] :24:30: The value of attribute "name" associated with an element
type "null" must not contain the '<' character.

slowing down eclipse and filling the terminal from which I started eclipse with
garbage.



Steps to Reproduce: 
Minimal CMakeLists.txt in ~/src:
   cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.11)
   project(ttt)
   find_package(Qt4 REQUIRED)
   include(${QT_USE_FILE})

Generate the project with 
    cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ../src
in ~/build and import it into eclipse, started from a terminal to see the output

Additional Information: 
This only happens if 'include(${QT_USE_FILE})' is present in the CMakeLists.txt

the invalid line in .cproject looks like
    <pathentry kind="mac" name="$<$<NOT:$<CONFIG:Debug>>:QT_NO_DEBUG>" path=""
value=""/>
and a xml-editor reports an error (I use emacs with nXML-mode)

The error is preesent in the actual master-branch.
