Hi Wayne,

That is a very good option for some packages for sure, but I'm not 
really sure it's the right approach as it just papers over the issues 
rather than fixing them. There are a lot more deprecation notices for 
things that are going to get removed from CMake in the near future that 
we shouldn't ignore as we'll have to come back and do work to them again 
later, especially since some upstreams (like tidy and graphite2) seem to 
be abandoned.

For ones which aren't trivial to fix (e.g. MariaDB) we'll definitely 
consider using this option though!
