Either way should be fine. The MACOSX_BUNDLE_INFO_PLIST target property
specifies a customization or an override of the CMake provided built-in file
"MacOSXBundleInfo.plist.in". CMake itself will configure this file into the
bundle's Info.plist file. So there's no need for you to call configure_file
on it.

But if you do, CMake will do so again anyhow, and you should end up with the
same final result.

I'm looking at the code in "cmLocalGenerator::GenerateAppleInfoPList" to
derive this information... (Which is called from Makefile and Xcode
generators...)
