I really thought it was a list of flags. What if a flag has an argument 
with a space? For instance,
-I/home/rodolfo lima

This should be treated as being one flag, not two. By treating it as one 
flag, the corresponding compiler argument would be
-I/home/rodolfo\ lima

So, doing a list(APPEND CMAKE_C_FLAGS "-I/home/rodolfo lima") would do 
the right thing.
