[Bf-committers] Ready for first commit?!

[Jürgen Herrmann]

Hi Sergey,

alright, i'll see how we can do this ;)
The problem ist that the CMakeFiles don't seem to consistently add the _d suffix to the debug libs anyway.
So we'll have to patch that too. When the Release stuff is ready and committed I'll focus on providing proper debug libs and a patch to CMakeFiles where needed.
