+Prefer files from the CMake module directory when including from there.
+
+Starting with CMake 2.8.4, if a cmake-module shipped with CMake (i.e.
+located in the CMake module directory) calls :command:`include` or
+:command:`find_package`, the files located in the CMake module directory are
+preferred over the files in :variable:`CMAKE_MODULE_PATH`. This makes sure
+that the modules belonging to CMake always get those files included which
+they expect, and against which they were developed and tested. In all
+other cases, the files found in :variable:`CMAKE_MODULE_PATH` still take
+precedence over the ones in the CMake module directory. The ``OLD``
+behavior is to always prefer files from CMAKE_MODULE_PATH over files
+from the CMake modules directory.
+
+This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.4. 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.
