That actually does the trick. But it's not nice, because there are many

Actually, I do not know about any use case, where cmake should replace a
full path to a lib
by its "-l" shortcut.
There are as far as I understand two use cases.
- The library does not have a SONAME
Linking to the library by path would embed the full path of the
library in the target rather than just the name (which is what it does
with -l or when the library does have a SONAME set)
- The second use case I am not familiar with myself but the explanation
in the code is:
// Many system linkers support multiple architectures by
// automatically selecting the implicit linker search path for the
// current architecture. If the library appears in an implicit link
// directory then just report the file name without the directory
// portion. This will allow the system linker to locate the proper
// library for the architecture at link time.
