Oops, I hit send too soon.

I meant to add that the default message should be reworded when
a version has been requested.  The user reading the message should
be told what version he/she needs to find.  Take a look at the
source under Source/cmFindPackageCommand.cxx and send a proposed
patch.

Thanks,
