The LANGUAGE property just tells CMake what the language is in
case CMake does not know an extension supported by a particular
compiler. It does not cause the "-x c++" or similar flag to be added:
http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=14516
The latter is needed to convince the compiler of the language.
