I'll try the patch.

What do you mean by "compiling" a header?

I usually do

add_library(mylib file1.c file1.h file2.c file2.h)
or
add_executable(myexe mysource.c anyother.h)
etc...

what's wrong/odd with that I thought CMake would sort it out
what is an header and what is not ?

Or do you mean that the
set_source_files_properties(sha1.c sha1.h PROPERTIES LANGUAGE "C")

is telling CMake that "sha1.h" should be compiled?

I thought I was (because I'm the culprit) telling CMake that thoses file
were C files (either header or to-be-compiled sources)?

Am I wrong?
