BUG: Fix hang in Process_Kill on OS X caused by an OS bug in which a pipe read end cannot be closed if the pipe write end is open, the pipe is full, and another process is blocking waiting to write.  Work around the problem by killing the children before closing the pipes.

ENH: Patch from Maik to add preprocessor directive handling to Fortran dependency scanning.  Also added -fpp flag to Intel Fortran compiler on Windows by default.

BUG: Fix parsing of fortran include directives during dependency scanning.  Previously only #include worked but not just include.

BUG: Restore old interface of "make foo.o" and "make foo.i" even though object file names now include source extensions.  For Java we also need to always remove the source extension (.java -> .class).  This fixes the re-opening of bug #6169.

with cmake cvs without this patch an invalid cmake_install.cmake script was
generated in this case, it failed with an error if no files were given. So
just do nothing if no files are listed to make it compatible.

ENH: Add support to CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID macro to try building the id source more than once with different extra flags added to the compiler.  Use the support to correctly identify the Intel Fortran compiler on windows which does not preprocess by default without special flags.
