Summary:                    MANIFESTUAC-Link flag results in vcxproj errors
Description: 
Adding the UAC flag like 

set_target_properties( XXX PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS_DEBUG
"MANIFESTUAC:\"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'\"" )

Therefore we obtain inside the vcxproj:

<EnableUAC>true</EnableUAC>
<UACUIAccess>level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'</UACUIAccess>

Instead of:
<EnableUAC>true</EnableUAC>
<UACUIAccess>false</UACUIAccess>
<UACExecutionLevel>RequireAdministrator</UACExecutionLevel>

what results in link errors

Steps to Reproduce: 
Adding the UAC flag like 

set_target_properties( XXX PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS_DEBUG
"MANIFESTUAC:\"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'\"" )

and build a VS2013 project file



Additional Information: 
I know there is antoher wa of adding link flags since 3.0, but we also use camke
2.8 and there it's teh same problem
