[CMake] CMake 2.8.0 built on OS X crashes on Startup.

[Mike Jackson]

Sorry No Patch but here is what needs to be inserted into
$CMAKE_SOURCE/Source/QtDialog/CMakeLists.txt.

I'll put some context around it for David or Bill to more easily find the place:

  IF(APPLE)
    SET(CMAKE_POSTFLIGHT_SCRIPT
      "${CMake_BINARY_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postflight.sh")
    SET(CMAKE_POSTUPGRADE_SCRIPT
      "${CMake_BINARY_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postupgrade.sh")
    configure_file("${CMake_SOURCE_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postflight.sh.in"
      "${CMake_BINARY_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postflight.sh")
    configure_file("${CMake_SOURCE_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postupgrade.sh.in"
      "${CMake_BINARY_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/postupgrade.sh")
    INSTALL(CODE "execute_process(COMMAND ln -s
\"../MacOS/${CMAKE_BUNDLE_NAME}\" cmake-gui
                  WORKING_DIRECTORY
\$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin)")
    INSTALL(CODE "set(input_file
       \"\$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/MacOS/${CMAKE_BUNDLE_NAME}\")")
    INSTALL(SCRIPT
"${CMake_SOURCE_DIR}/Source/QtDialog/CMakeIngestOSXBundleLibraries.cmake")

    IF (QT_MAC_USE_COCOA)
        INSTALL(CODE "execute_process(COMMAND /usr/bin/touch
\"../Resources/qt.conf\"
                         WORKING_DIRECTORY
\$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin)")

        INSTALL(CODE "execute_process(COMMAND cp -R
\"${QT_LIBRARY_DIR}/QtGui.framework/Resources/qt_menu.nib\"
\"../Resources/\"
         WORKING_DIRECTORY \$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin)")
    ENDIF(QT_MAC_USE_COCOA)

  ENDIF(APPLE)

Hopefully that will get committed into CVS HEAD  asap as this probably
is getting pretty important with Snow Leopard defaulting to 64 bit
compiles, which forces Qt to be 64 bit, which forces Cocoa to be used,
which forces this patch..

Thanks
