+-------

+link_directories() treats paths relative to the source dir.
+
+In CMake 2.8.0 and lower the link_directories() command passed
+relative paths unchanged to the linker. In CMake 2.8.1 and above the
+link_directories() command prefers to interpret relative paths with
+respect to CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR, which is consistent with
+include_directories() and other commands. The OLD behavior for this
+policy is to use relative paths verbatim in the linker command. The
+NEW behavior for this policy is to convert relative paths to absolute
+paths by appending the relative path to CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR.
+
+This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.1. CMake version
+|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior. Use
+the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly.
