Hello

(Sorry for the mailing list spam I should have asked about this too in the 
previous mail)

On install I would need cmake to portably create some empty directories that 
do not exist in the source. INSTALL(DIRECTORY...) just copies an existent 
structure in my case that structure does not exists. I know I could probably 
search for some external mkdir command and use it but then I would have to 
think of any possible platform and try to find the command for that platform 
and also worry about whatever parameters it wants. cmake already has logic to 
create directories in a platform independent way used by the various 
INSTALL(...) commands, it would be nice if there was a way to use it to 
create some arbitrary directories on install (their path of course it still 
respects CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and such).

To solve this in automake I just created some dummy "<stuff>_dir" variables 
that automake interpreted and created those empty directories on install. I 
would like to know if there is something similar for cmake, thank you!
