[CMake] Installing and Exporting for multiple configurations

[J Decker]

I see so the proper full path would be

             get_property( existing_outname TARGET ${target} PROPERTY
OUTPUT_NAME )
             if( NOT existing_outname )
             set( existing_outname ${target} )
             endif( NOT existing_outname )

DESTINATION
lib${LIB_SUFFIX}/${CMAKE_{STATIC,SHARED}_LIBRARY_PREFIX}${existing_outname}${CMAKE_{STATIC,SHARED}_LIBRARY_SUFFIX.
