Fix linking of generated files in cmake

Browse Source 
If generation of files is turned off, and a file is missing, when
building in tree with cmake, you can end up with the generated file
being turned into a symlink to itself. This will also break any future
attempt at building with make. Fix this by testing if the file exists
prior to attempting to link it.
