I have now (revision 12260) changed the Ada and D language support
files in PLplot (including the Ada test project in
plplot/branches/test_cmake/test_ada) so they now work with both 2.8.9 and
CMake-2.8.10-rc3.  The CMake developers gave me some useful advice
about what to do, but even so the changes were a bit tricky.

They are still mulling over what to do (if anything) concerning this
backwards-incompatible change in CMake-2.8.10.  I advised them to at
least announce the change in their release announcement and include
some documentation about how to adjust to the change so nobody else
gets surprised by this change like I was, but we will see what they
decide to do.

Meanwhile, PLplot should be okay whatever they decide to do.
