To be noted: I have a branch that re-introduces cmake-3.7 (and later
versions, I hope) and fixes this rpath issue.

It works for all types of cmake:

  - pre-installed host cmake, tested with 3.1 and 3.7

  - built cmake, tested with 3.6 and 3.7

I still need to do more testing, as well as proper commit logs. ;-)
Expect it Real Soon Now (TM)! :-)

Yann E. MORIN.
