Great, thanks for your work!

Please proceed through steps 5 and 6 here:

 http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Module_Maintainers#New_Maintainer

You're welcome to work on other modules (like SDL) as well, but
please bring up changes for discussion on the list with the
current maintainer of each.

based on the version when using GLEW?

There is nothing wrong with using PkgConfig when it is available,
but it does not work for all toolchains on all platforms we support.
