It just hasn't been implemented.  Support for generator expressions
was added to install(FILES) here:

 install: Support generator expressions in FILES and PROGRAMS mode
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=6e89c8a5

and included in 3.0.  Thanks for working on it.

Yes.  We don't make non-doc/non-regression fixes after the feature
freeze for the release, which is long past.

Good start.  Please extend documentation and tests for this feature
similar to how it was done for install(FILES) in the above-linked
commit.

Then please read CONTRIBUTING.rst and send the patch to this list
for further review.

Thanks,
-Brad
