Here is a CMakeLists.txt that will give you the desired layout.
I also see that MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION doesn't work with RESOURCE.


set_property(SOURCE module.modulemap
  PROPERTY MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION "Modules")

set_property(
  SOURCE lang/pl.txt lang/en.txt
  PROPERTY MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION "Resources/lang")

set(RESLIST 
    mulres.txt
    resourcefile.txt
    )

add_library(mul SHARED 
            mul.c
            mul.h
            module.modulemap
            lang/pl.txt
            lang/en.txt
            resourcefile.txt
            mulres.txt)

# Create an iOS Framework bundle 
set_target_properties(mul PROPERTIES
  FRAMEWORK TRUE
  MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_IDENTIFIER org.cmake.mul
  MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_SHORT_VERSION_STRING 42
  MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_BUNDLE_VERSION 3.2.10
  XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY "iPhone Developer"
  PUBLIC_HEADER mul.h
  RESOURCE "${RESLIST}"
)


Now I'm wondering what does the RESOURCE target property do that 
MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION doesn't already support?
