Gregor, Your commit of... https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=log;h=540815eec2b83a8b43689580c54e8950d9f5868b
has caused a major regression in cmake 3.7.0 as it no longer properly honors the combination... -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET:STRING="" -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT:STRING=/ This is obvious by simple inspection of the code in Modules/Platform/Darwin-Initialize.cmake as the code no longer honors -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT:STRING=/. At the very least, this code needs to be modified to have cmake emit "-isysroot /" in that case. IMHO, this issue should be considered a blocker for the cmake 3,7.0 release on darwin.
