Yes.

With CMP0054 and CMP0064 set to NEW then

 set(var TEST)
 if(var STREQUAL TEST)

works as expected.  With CMP0054 set to NEW and CMP0064 not set it
warns.  I do not think it should warn, but looking at the code it
would take major refactoring to be able to avoid the false positive.
Either way projects should just set CMP0064 to NEW.
