I edit CMakeCache.txt. There's a ccmake editor but the (g) generate 
command disappears every time I modify something. I don't know if it's a 
Mac bug or I just haven't figured out the editor.

The cmake variable CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK defaults to FIRST. I have a full 
set of libraries in both /usr/local and /Library/Frameworks and it finds 
frameworks over libs for all except gdal.

Since the paths can be changed and are remembered after changing, I 
haven't examined the Find* code yet. Along with fixing Find*, setting 
CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK to LAST should become an initialization option for 
Mac users who have frameworks and want /usr/local to be searched first.
