CMake version

Which is the oldest cmake version we should support? Some
systems/distros only offer cmake 2.4.x, should we make sure we still
provide compatibility with this cmake version, or is it ok to use
cmake 2.6.x only features in our cmake files?

Ubuntu Hardy and Centos 5 still only provide 2.4 by default, though
you can get 2.6 in Hardy backports.

Having said that, we're converting to only 2.6. It is quite a bit
better than 2.4.

For the ROS repository, we choose to maintain support for CMake 2.4+
until 2.6 is more widely available via package manager installs.
