[... My] further testing showed the versions of FindSWIG.cmake and UseSWIG.cmake from CMake-3.0.2 has build failures for Java and Lua, and the versions from CMake-3.6.2 and 3.8.0-rc4 have build failures for Java even though none of these "official" versions exhibited the rule contamination.
I have bumped the minimum CMake version from 3.0.2 to 3.6.2 for PLplot so I am not going to worry about the Lua issue for 3.0.2. And it turned out the Java issue was simply a change in naming convention for the resulting module between my special UseSWIG.cmake and the official ones that I needed to adjust for. So that concludes this topic from the PLplot perspective. However, while researching this, I did notice one issue with the CMake git master version of Modules/UseSWIG.cmake that the CMake maintainers of that file might want to address which is the if...elseif...elseif clauses establishing the PREFIX and SUFFIX properties for each specific language language covered currently has no else clause to set PREFIX to "" for all languages not specifically covered by the if and elseif blocks. I suggest you do implement such an else cause to be consistent with older versions of UseSWIG.cmake (such as my special version) which simply set PREFIX to "" for all languages, and also consistent with the specificially covered languages where PREFIX is set to "" as well (except for the Java case).
