Steve, I think this is a parsing problem here: http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Source/cmTargetLinkLibrariesCommand.cxx;hb=v2.8.12#l151 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Source/cmTargetLinkLibrariesCommand.cxx;hb=v2.8.12#l181 It should allow LINK_PUBLIC to occur after another LINK_PUBLIC, and LINK_PRIVATE to occur after another LINK_PRIVATE. Currently it requires that they alternate. Thew newer PUBLIC/PRIVATE/INTERFACE options allow any order and repeats.
