[cmake-developers] Possibly an obscure bug

This isn't a bug but more of a weird side effect of having your executable
named the same as an include file and adding the destination directory for
the executable in the include path.  The same thing would happen if your
executable was named foo and you had "#include <foo>".  By setting
CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR to on then CMake is adding
-I/path/to/source/blink and -I/path/to/build/blink to the compile line.
The default destination for the list executable also happens to be
/path/to/build/blink.  The second time around, the list executable from the
first run is in the include path, thus #include <list> picks up the
executable instead of the C++ header.
