Please use the following consistent variable names for general use.

-Xxx_INCLUDE_DIRS The final set of include directories listed in one variable for use by client code.

-Xxx_FOUND Set to false, or undefined, if we haven't found, or don't want to use Xxx.

-Xxx_NOT_FOUND_MESSAGE Should be set by config-files in the case that it has set Xxx_FOUND to FALSE.

- The list should be used by user code to create the PATH on windows or LD_LIBRARY_PATH on unix.
