Yup, it will be in the next release.   It was too risky to push this fix 
into this one.  Since, it did not require any changes to your 
CMakeLists.txt files, just a different way of invoking CMake I left it 
out.  Sorry, and thanks for helping us track it down.  We hope to change 
the process for CMake releases this year, so that we can get them out 
more frequently.  This should avoid the sense of urgency that seems to 
come with a release getting every possible feature/fix in it.
