[Rock-dev] Rock CMAKE macros not working under windows

[Michael Rohn]

On the cmake bugtracker you will find some bug reports about this 
problem. I think there is no cmake solution and it is not planed to fix 
this in the near future by the cmake developers.

So we have to handle it on our own.

Greetings
Michael
