Thanks Bill.  I'm very encouraged by the response this thread has
generated and optimistic that the Find* modules will become more robust
without undue effort by module writers.

Well, it is not going to happen over night, but I think we are closer to a plan. I am going to update the wiki with the main three ideas of this thread so it does not get lost.

- Standard FOO_DIR for find modules, but environment and cache. Environment works like CC and CXX do.

- Add ability to parse compile lines like the ones produced from pkg-config and turn them into full paths to libraries.

- Add an easy way to create dependent cache variables, that when changed unset a number of other variables.
