CMP0016
-------

:command:`target_link_libraries` reports error if its only argument
is not a target.

In CMake 2.8.2 and lower the :command:`target_link_libraries` command silently
ignored if it was called with only one argument, and this argument
wasn't a valid target.  In CMake 2.8.3 and above it reports an error
in this case.

This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.3.  CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.  Use
the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly.
