[CMake] 2.8.11rc1 CMAKE_LINKER and CMAKE_OBJCOPY sporadically vanishing

[Nils Gladitz]

I am trying out CMake 2.8.11rc1 on windows and linux continuous build 
clients.

During clean full rebuilds everything seems to work fine.
During incremental "Continuous" builds with reused build directories 
however CMAKE_OBJCOPY (on linux gcc; used by me manually) and 
CMAKE_LINKER (on windows MSVC; used by the static link step) sometimes 
seem to go missing (the variables are suddenly empty?).

I haven't been able to reliably reproduce or find the issue behind it 
but at least the CMAKE_OBJCOPY problem seems to have gone away by me 
manually including CMakeFindBinUtils in the context where I used it.

When CMAKE_LINKER goes empty I get Dashboard (CDash) errors like this:
     Command: "/lib" "/nologo" [...] <- notice the missing linker 
executable name at the beginning
     Exit Condition: Error administrating child process: The parameter 
is incorrect
