[CMake] Win DLL with rc-file...

Hello,
I'm trying to create a Win32 DLL that contains some resources.
I've read that you should be able to just add an rc-file to an exe or a
lib/dll and CMake should figure out what to do.
In my CMakeLists.txt I have
SET(RCFILE XX.rc)
ADD_LIBRARY(libX SHARED XX.c ${RCFILE})
The rc-file is generated on the fly and lives in
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} whereas XX.c lives in
${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}. I have tested marking ${RCFILE} as
GENERATED using SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(${RCFILE} PROPERTIES
GENERATED true) but that makes no difference whatsoever.
The link line in the generated Makefile contains no trace of the
res-file (assuming the generation is from .rc to .res for the linker).
However, if I manually add the (hand-generated) .res file to the linker
line everything is fine.
Any ideas why this is not working?
