Since when? I haven't seen that documented anywhere. IMHO this
behavior is counter-intuitive, in general I expect the scope of a
target to not depend on the cmake command I am trying to use. Seeing
as targets seem to be visible globally to all the commands (that I've
used so far) it seems to reasonable to me to expect
add_custom_command() to be able to see these targets too.
