[CMake] CMake, Windows and choosing which variables are required

[PA Galmes]

Hello,

Following the thread
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2007-April/013454.html
we were wondering how cmake choose which variables are required and which
are not.
Just read the quote:

While cmake asks for "SDLMAIN_INCLUDE, SDLMAIN_LIBRARY..." it does not for
SDL_LIBRARY_TEMP.

Any idea why?
